I'm of two minds when I watch this and similar videos. My initial reaction is that these are dangerous, deluded fools worthy of ridicule, but upon more sober reflection, I just feel sad about them, and a twinge of guilt myself as I've come to question free will and therefore view these folks as victims. I also think they are probably representative of whole lot of America.They were likely raised in homes without books, rich conversations, or trips, near or far. They probably had loving parents who had similar experiences and similarly simple and narrow views. They probably prize the information sources that they grew up with (elders, pastors), as well as their social media "friends" and of course Fox News pundits. When you're in an insular world, you don't have an inkling as to what you're missing out on. Our present day media and social networks won't allow for a trusted Walter Cronkite like figure. We're in a hell of a spot. And once again, I'll recommend the great book, The Constitution of Knowledge-A Defense of Truth, by Jonathan Rauch. It impressively covers the shit situation our world find itself in. PLEASE PURCHASE IT! :)
