Yes, I think things are very different.
Can you imagine, for example, what it took for Copernicus to go against "common sense", the teachings of the elders, and power of the church, at the time. Or Semmelweis, Snow, and Koch coming up with the germ theory of disease. Maybe mathematics has remained the same in terms of thinking and innovation, but the scientific method has changed the world, and our bases for "common sense". Now, even the moderately intelligent can find ways to help explain the physical world. Plus, the pill radically changed the influence of religion. . |

This, over on FB.
If you type "L" then you will like it. And then others will see that you like it and they will wonder what hitting "L" does and they will like it too. And so on. It's stupid and virus like, but amusing that I fell for it. |

I just had mormons at my door. A couple of nice looking young men, in suits, represented themselves well, articulate, polite.
I was polite too. I thanked them for stopping, but no thanks right now. I asked for a pamphlet or something and they gave me a card with mormon website address. "Can we stop by another time?" "No, I don't think so, but I'll keep this in mind. Thank you." big smile Curtains down. Thank you. |

I thought about bringing up the dead hobos out back, but they were awfully skittish.
