It's why I laugh at the New Atheists who say that religion is dying.
There's more than a little evidence that religiosity and political affiliation have a substantial genetic component...and all data shows the religious are out-breeding the secular and the conservative out-breeding the liberal.
You ever hear about the apparent conservative tilt Generation Z? It's worth pointing out their parents grew up when the environmental movement really took of with The Population Bomb and the first Earth Day and all that stuff.
The "dream" that logic and reason would prevail was always just an intellectuals dream
Always just a tiny fraction of a tiny fraction of humanity
and they are easily dismissed as elitists
when it gets right down to it we're just frightened irrational superstitious monkeys
If humans believed math and science were the language of God
We'd have a vastly different planet
imagine a bible that bestowed the virtues of intelligence and reason
Imagine a Bible that urged us to "learn more" and speak the language of Science
instead we believe a bunch of ignorant goat herders from the Iron Age
It's so ridiculously stupid its difficult to even fathom
and yet here we are...
