I don't know, Spike. If that was the case, people would also be getting 
wise to the phony nonsense that religion feeds them, and I don't see 
much evidence of that happening. I may be wrong, and hope I am, but I'm 
skeptical of a large number of people learning to be skeptical. Dumbness 
and gullibility seem to be as widespread as ever (I wonder if there is 
some way of accurately measuring this?).
