Why Can't others See?

Why do we see tonnes of intellectuals (scientists, philosophers, doctors) who are all perfectly sane fall for ideas like birth without sex, paradise, angels, demons etc..... What are you all's view on this? Thank you

I don't know many scientists that are true blue bible thumpers. Some of them believe in something....but most are actually Atheist. As for Doctors and other people who are intelligent...I don't know. Sometimes you are raised to believe in God and you have it pounded into your head and you become brainwashed enough to believe it. Even still some Atheists had that happen to them and called B.S. on it...not everyone has as much of a back bone to go against the grain as others. I see many intelligent non science people who believe in God. I think it's a shame but whatever...as long as they don't take it to the voting booths then I could care less what they believe. As long as I know I'm not wasting my time praying, going to church, and repenting for all of my sins then I could care less.

Greatest fear ever.

LOL. I have never known of anyone that has happened to in my life. I think you are safe. One thing that will cause gas is gum. I used to chew gum a lot and then I had this class at a specific time every day and I got bad gas in that class. I never have bad gas like that and I started looking for a cause. Being the scientific minded person I am I started looking up reasons for gas. I realized it was my gum chewing!!! I stopped chewing gum in the morning of the days that I had that class and my gas stopped. I looked it up and apparently when you chew gum you swallow air more often than if you don't chew gum. Apparently if I chewed gum from 8AM until noon every day I'd get gas around 1:30PM. It never failed. Just some useless info.

Honestly one of my fears is rape. I've had that fear since I found out what rape was as a young girl. I have nighmares pretty often about being raped and when I think of someone breaking into my home I fear that they would rape me. I think it's a normal fear for most women. I also fear losing my child or someone abducting them and I also think that's normal for parents.
