48. When close to half the population thinks two of every species of animal
Can fit on an medium sized ark, along with the food and other supplies for them for 200 days, and be tended by about 10 people, is it a surprise to find out they don't have very good mathematical skills or mathematical reasoning? I would think that most such people would positively shrink from math - it is the devil's work that leads people astray. Besides, isn't that the sort of stuff Godless pagans like Plato and Socrates were into? Plus, weren't they gay?
