I feel I need to post a relevant observation with regards to education and susceptibility to believing things on insufficient evidence:

We live in a world in which you can be prestigiously trained as a brain surgeon, yet still be susceptible to believing in a virgin birth. Education and intelligence are not mutually exclusive from believing stupid things...and vice versa. That was my intended sentiment.

A generalization is not a 100% accurate? Holy fuck! I think someone needs to consult a dictionary for the definition of generalization.

I knew what he meant...lol
