UGGGGGGGGGGGGG!

Was there anything positive when most of the planet believed the earth was flat?

It is understandable when a kid has a imaginary friend as a play date. It is sad and absurd when humans have them as adults. It was understandable when humans did not know any better. But we have much better tools today to gain knowledge about the world and universe around us.

Negative is when you stop thinking and default to the past out of a false sense of comfort. If our species never questioned social norms our species never would have left the caves.

Living in the past is negative to me.
