Re: How brainwashed have the majority of you become??

I didn't read very far, but let me pick you up on the very first thing you claim:

Every cell in our body communicates by small electrical signals

This is incorrect. Electrical impulses are only used by nerve cells, and then, only internally. Inter-cellular communication betwen neurons is done chemically, which is why the word neurotransmitter exists.

It appals me that there seem to be so may posters on here that think that the vaguest mis-remembered passing knowledge of something scientific qualifies them to spout off long tirades that are simply put, very wrong. We live in an age where access to knowledge is more available than ever. When I was growing up, we had to learn stuff from text books, but now it seems that the ability to critically judge the difference between information and bullshit is gone, and the same weight is given to conspiracy nutjobs on twitter as it is to peer-reviewed scientific journals, which are all available online, often free of charge.
