Spiritmolecule, it is not about you living a happier life, it's not about enjoying your life, it's not about happiness. It's about what is absolutely correct as defined by our academic institutions.

There are right things to believe in and there are wrong, unacceptable things to believe in. What we can reasonably believe is endowed upon us by a rightfulness that can only be found in the most sensible, reasonable minds in our academic and scientific communities, the ones that deserve our trust and respect. To do otherwise is to say you hate education and intelligence.

They have worked through many years of grad school, earning the respect of other trained professionals to tell us how we should think and I think you ought to respect that.

I have respect for their learning and expertise, however, NO ONE can tell me what to think, nor will I ever surrender my own power to another. I am perfectly capable of thinking for myself.
