Quote | But after 150 years of the hard sell, why is it that so many people haven’t bought into the Darwin myth I wonder? Perhaps because that is how they perceive it - as a myth - some real evidence, instead of the empty rhetoric might help their cause. It is true that most people haven’t studied science in depth, but they do know when someone is trying to sell them a dodgy motor. | Link
But of course. They clearly can tell reality from myth just by their instincts. That's why between 20 and 40 % of all people believe in ghosts, aliens visiting earth, astrology, witches, and that it's possible to talk with dead people (Gallup).
