What have you learned today?

That the vast majority accept whatever they hear on the grapevine, not by cause of truths or evidence, but by cause of their personal philosophies, ideologues or worldviews.

Professors need to stop teaching students to think of the world in terms of particles, & start teaching students to think in terms of fields.

 

Strawberry fields forever.
