Yeah, those damn scientists and their insatiable thirst for knowledge and refusal to rest on their laurels. Life would be so much better if everyone was just content with being a simpleton and drooling out "goddidit" as the answer for everything without bothering to figure out how anything works.
If you don't like the answers science gives you, feel free to stop reaping its benefits. We could weed out the gene pool very quickly if the devout would simply try live off prayer and faith.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
