Fun Fact: Humans and Banana's share 50% of the same genetic code.

Blasphemy.

to paraphrase one of our best congressmen, "gravity and magnets are lies from the pit of hell".

it's like the movie idiocracy is happening before our eyes..

Did you know, that if you break a magnet in half, each half will then become it's own magnet? With a north and south pole?

You can't explain that.

I don't have magnets in my shoes. How this does work it?

yeah, I don't think so.

while we make fun of this situation, it makes one seriously wonder what the cause is. is it cultural? political? lack of funding for education? genetics? willful ignorance?

I've seen so many science articles where the comments are "science is full of shit" and "what a waste of money". When they are using the internet, computers, GPS navigation, uh, pretty much everything we have today is because of science.. yeah, what a waste!
