A lot of people have become victims of the quick and easy access the Internet and TV offer today. Don't get me wrong, I love the Internet and TV. But they are TOOLS to be used and learned from, or be entertained by. Not followed blindly like the snakes following St. Patrick. Too many people believe everything they read or hear from these sources without checking them out for themselves. Sound bites + headlines can = misinformation.
I hope that a movement against misinformation begins soon. I don't care what other people choose to believe, as long as they have sound bases on which to ground themselves. Okay, before anyone brings up religion, that is a different story. That is based on faith. And I believe people can choose to believe whatever they want when it comes to their faith. As long as no one is trying to press their beliefs on anyone unwilling , that is.
