I believe in evolution.  What does that do for me?  It has no practical value.  That piece of "smartness" is more or less worthless.

In an evolutionary sense, I'd probably agree with you.  All kinds of people have all kinds of goofy ideas, but it doesn't generally affect their ability to hold a job, to get laid (i.e. reproduced), to get food, etc.

But can you take all the pills in your prescription as directed by your doctor?
