The Science of Why We Don’t Believe Science
#23
RE: The Science of Why We Don’t Believe Science
Gap filling with flawed perceptions is evolutionary. The antelope on the African plane does not always have time to assess if the swaying grass is wind or a lion stalking them. We often, far too often fill in gaps with flawed perceptions because that placebo can create safety in numbers in a group dynamic. The Ancient Egyptians were successful for 3,000 years because of their false belief that the sun was a thinking being.

Placebos do work in evolution, because evolution is only about reproduction, not fact finding.
