When I went to school we were told to accept science or whatever as it was told to us, the same for religion. Our parents took us to church, we were told to believe “because” and that was that. I would ask my mother a question about why we humans did something (that to me seemed weird) and she would say, “Because we have always done it that way.”

We were told what to think, accept what authority told us, and not to rock the boat or else we may upset people who were accepted in the world as “experts” and authorities on a subject.
When I first went on Social media I was told that I could not write about religion unless I proved it with verses of the Bible.

Today, in 2026, people are questioning the verses meanings, questioning interpretations and the beliefs, and such without the Bible verses, they are simply using common sense, and the same is happening with the sciences, or accepting what the politicians tells us – in other words, people are starting to Think Again, Question what they are told, and people are forming their own versions/beliefs of what happened or what makes something work, instead of just accepting what they have been told to think.

Questioning what happened, debating what happened, looking at All the Evidence, getting all the sources of thought and opinions, and forming their own views, especially after COVID-19 and the “Trust the Science” and trusting authorities with mental-submission and mental-blindness, people have learned from the few that didn’t get vaccinated and didn’t die, that the few can be right and the many completely wrong.

And from these modern recent world experiences people are thinking more, questioning more, and forming their own views to suit their own lives, and taking control from others who assume that they are better, smarter, and should control them.
