Hi @jamc129,
I really liked this article - especially your sober, rational perspective on this.
As humans, we simply aren't skeptical enough and (like to) believe the first best explanation that "makes sense" for us, given our expectations of how the world is supposed to work. "...the ancient human need to know and tell stories about mysteries and inexplicable facts" says it perfectly.
I am new to Steemit but I will post a lot on critical thinking and related topics. I would appreciate if you joined the discussion I'll try to spark here in the future :)
