7. You've been digging?... Kool
Yes, I'm rather 'disenchanted'.

My party was hijacked.

I've had no refuge from the bullshit until I found DU.

Granted- not everything here is flawless, but the intent to adopt an empirical attitude is genuine.

That's the crux.

I have other ongoing debates online. I've never lost a debate in my life... I cite facts and documentation.
But then I encounter those who seem to live in a fantasy world where what they WANT to believe becomes reality.

As a Cognitive scientist, this is no surprise to me.
So I set out to check the scope of this 'mindset'.

It is astounding. Not because I was unaware of 'societal cognizance', but because of what this means for the survival of the human race.

We, all of us, are in grave danger.

Moreso than I thought possible until recently.

I have been trying to get some wind under my theory on Human Superconscious Mechanics - but I fear that the fruits of my theory will lead to our destruction before I finish my work.

It is a work that can explain Religion, Witchcraft, Psychic phenomenon, Socio-cultural trends, even human destiny itself.
There is a chance that humanity will destroy itself before I can get my work done. (or at least set us back a century or two)

I'm sure you can understand my 'disenchantment' with the general populus... and the most disillusioned of them are Bush** supporters.

They don't realize they are not real Republicans.
