Haha! Well, I can't speak for you, @yaan, but I found soooooo many things to distract myself instead of study as a kid. I'm actually really impressed by what a lot of them are gleaning from online. As if we didn't find a way to look at contraband material in class!
I mean, there also seem to be more people who believe the earth is flat, but maybe it's just that it's easier for them to come together via internet.
Where do you find people who believe that earth is flat? :D
I've never found any. But I think the shape of the earth doesn't really matter.
And I also like unordinary ideas, it is less boring with them around.
Haha! You might get a kick out of this - It's so hard to tell what's satire and what's not!

Oh well... If it helps them in their life then let them believe in what they believe.
But what about the theory that we live in the matrix. Or that we live on a giant turtle.
Matrix and Turtle people we should unite and show em!
Flat-earthers should not take all attention to themselves!
