To help us forget our pathetically empty lives and existential angst?

I don't know why they keep believing the silly Mars rumor. I am really sick and tired of the same stupid questions that pop up here about:
1) Mars and its size as the full moon?
2) Did America really go to the moon?
3) Will the world end in 2012?
Any more questions like these from morons and I will have to take a break from this place.

Because most people just aren't willing or able to do any independant thinking of their own, or do any research of their own.
Just look at how many questions in YA are obviously for homework - rather than spending a tiny bit of time finding out the answers for themselves, they ask the question and hope someone will give them the answer.
The real problem is that when people are just given an answer without them doing the work to find out for themselves, they didn't learn anything.
People today are used to instant messaging, instant foods, instant communication. They have lost the patience that learning requires.
So for all those people that believe these silly hoaxes and that just assume that any ludicrous statement must be true if it was in an email...I feel sorry for you. Life will be unnecessarily hard.

People are unobservant and pay no attention to the world around them. They have become so self absorbed that they have eschewed learning and discovery. When they hear something like that they assume its true because they have no past learning to tell them otherwise.
