While your post expresses an ideal that would be attractive to every mind that is allergic to bullshit, I have difficulty with drawing too close a parallel between bodily immunology and cognitive immunology. I have seen countless minds who feel immensely threatened by engaging in critical thinking (and mine was once one of those minds). My intolerance of logical fallacies was more powerful than the fear put into my mind by a religious asshole when I was aged 10. My primary concern is that bullshit defense mechanisms of the American Deep South mentality will never give way to logic and reason - there is too much herd stupidity.

anglophone comments on Aug 12, 2021:

Thank you sharing that historical perspective. I am no position to comment on the philosophy thread in your post. My own perspective is that it was Sir Isaac Newton that really got the scientific revolution going with his Laws of Motion and their predictive power to explain the positions of the planets, out of which grew the Scientific Method. The success of that method is countered by religious people with their "God moves in mysterious ways" which they use as a cover for the lack of predictive power of religion. The abandonment of a lifelong belief in the Abrahamic god can come at immense personal cost which explains why such people cling to their religion despite the complete lack of falsifiable evidence to support their godly claims.
