And not in a good way. The gullibility of people seems to have no end. The lack of any sort of skepticism or critical thought. It astounds me. People fumble through life without looking into things, asking questions, wondering if, how, or why something might be correct.
And of course social media brings it out of people and shows the world just how gullible they are. Here are just a few grotesque examples of gullibility just from this morning's feed:
 |
| Um what? October? We're in September. And Oct 2013 does not have 5 Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. So how credible is the rest of it and what connection could it possibly have with Chinese Feng Shui?! No money? How so? 11 minutes?! SERIOUSLY people?! |
 |
| It seriously blows my mind that the next though that follows is not "So when people die, it is directly his fault. He's apparently in charge of handing out 'days' to people. So when you don't get one, that must be him." How does that not compute? |
 |
| What in the world is this guy blathering about? Spirit of excellence? Honor? What is this? Some medieval conquest involving wizards?! Do these people live in the same reality we do? Seriously...how does this not sound like a total load of bs to people? |
 |
| How did that miracle go? We should have almost half a million miracles by now since god apparently uses facebook shares as a method for handing out miracles and curses. Also, all should have gone wrong for the rest of us that ignored it, which includes me. Still waiting.... |
This is people apparently. It's embarrassing that even the most basic form of skepticism is not applied to the barrage of bs thrown at you on a daily basis. I don't even know what the thought process that would lead to accepting, agreeing with, and reposting all this bs would even be like. Because I mean, come on. Belief in deities aside, even if you believe in some sort of god(s), why in the world would they use social media for handing out miracles and money and condemning people?! Seriously....
