can someone proof read this for me? feel free to yell at me and give me criticism as I do know that I probably need it.
Why do people believe claims which do not have a scientific basis?
Sadly, the majority of us are simple minded beings that enjoy life to be simple and easy to understand. Before humans had science they had religion, which they put their faith in to gain a sense of understanding. Leaders of the ancient world found an easy way to explain to their people why and how things happened. “God made it so.” “To believe otherwise is heresy.” What humans needed before is the same as what the need now and what they’ll need in the future, the simple ape folk want a simple explanation. That is one possible reason for why people may think we never landed on the moon. the other; Because it is also human nature to question. Question what seems ridiculous. If my astronomy professor lectured to the class that today the sky will turn neon purple and the oceans bright yellow, I would question. I would seek answers as to why this would happen and would need to see for myself.
