I am absolutely NOT calling myself open-minded. I had my fair share of (mostly futile) discussions with creatonists/flat earthers/hollow earthers/nutjobs-of-the-week-followers during my university days. Just you get the idea: I am absolutely closed-mided about those morons: They are morons. At some point, as a scientist, you give up and just call morons morons and don't waste weeks trying to turn them into scientists. Fortunately calling a spade a spade is still allowed. But as a scientist it is frustrating to see that seemingly more and more people - probably overwhelmed by the ever increasing complexity of the world - give up on thinking. Whether they believe a God or evolution gave them a brain: They should at least try to use it and not go the somebody ese is thinking for me route".
