I can think of a MUCH longer list, except they all generally fall into these same categories.

My B.S. meter hits max before I even start reading anything from them. The name alone is enough.

Our schools do a poor job of teaching how to think for yourself. They promote how to go along with what you are being told. This explains why it takes many so long to realize the bs they were or are taught...like religion and gods. If more people could think rationally, maybe religion would be less popular by now.

@Shaggy2018 The teaching of how to think instead of what to think goes against the grain for every dimwit teacher across the globe.

@anglophone I don’t know about all, but certainly a good many

@anglophone A couple of exceptions, but yeah.

@anglophone I guess every education system tries to teach students to be good little sheep, vs teaching them to be independent thinkers.

I went o parochial school, so believing in bullshit was expected and rewarded

@Canndue Same here……..The nuns taught it as if it were fact. To this day I can still remember “The profession of faith” and the “Hail Mary” like it was yesterday.

@CuddyCruiser this is sorta like comparing scars

Did your nuns have the little clickers when teaching when to stand, kneel and sit?
