More wondrous even than magical thinking is the Adsense algorithm that's just given AMERICAN THINKER reading Covid contrarians the ideal mask for their job:
By Jeffrey Ricker
The history of mankind is, for the most part, that of ignorant pagans dutifully agreeing with whatever a group of priests told them was true...
When plague strikes, the people were particularly attentive to their priests to hear how to please the gods and avoid death. The 21st century is not different. Today, however, they call their priests "scientists" and one of their gods "government."
The priests/scientists have stated that we have been greedy and created too much carbon dioxide. To save ourselves from the plague, the gods/government command that we wear a mask.
The common man claims to believe in science. In reality, he believes in scientists. There is a very big difference. If he believed in science, then he would critically weigh the theories and conclusions presented to him against a body of producible facts and repeatable experiments. The common man does not do this. He simply takes the words of the priest/scientists as truth, especially when the words are blessed by the gods/government.
Science is not ignorant superstition, but the common man's belief in science is. Believe I am wrong? Ask someone to explain the scientific principle. The majority will not be able.
