Quote: I probably look really fucking stupid for somewhat agreeing on their points of viewPretty much.
In all seriousness:
I fucking hate the anti-intellectual nonsense that dictates having a real understanding of something somehow cheapens it. No. No no no fucking no. Science is so immensely intricate and complex that a greater understanding only makes you appreciate things more. It's about time that we as a society moved away from the idea that knowledge is something to be feared or something that ruins the simple joys in life, because that's just bullshit put around by people who don't fucking think enough.
If someone has to believe something's ~magic~ for it to mean anything to them, you can't even call them a child. I've never met a child who wasn't full of questions about everything ever. The sort of person who prefers things to go unexplained is just a coward hearkening back to a "more simple time" that never fucking existed.
