"The experiments didn't produce layperson-friendly statistics about the influence of being analytical. "Unfortunately, our analyses don't yield nice, punchy numbers," Gervais said."

Well shoot. who needs numbers? Especially when they aren't nice and punchy! Don't you hate those? Just tell us what you want us to believe and we'll take your word for it. Your good people right?

Studies are overrated. Just ask someone and believe them. Facts are tricky and far to difficult for simple folks like us to figure out on our own...or even have explained to us in any detail at all.

I am very concerned whether politicians who really believe in resurrection and immaculate conception are capable of using objectivity and logic skills to decide to the major issues that face us. Scientific illiteracy is at the root of the population's willingness to believe the ridiculous.
