Alas, for many people, science is still working as their Brainwashing Machine. Reading the typical stuff they are saying, it's clear that their main presupposition is quite obsolete one - namely, that the physical reality works as an independent mechanism. This old paradigm has been completely disproved but still somehow remains in the "mainstream", especially outside the modern physics.
Edited by AlexCaledin, : "for many people" seems better than "to many people", doesn't it?
