HelloPenned by the famous George Bernard Shaw
SOMEWHERE or other—I think it is in the preface to Saint Joan, George Bernard Shaw remarks that we are more gullible and superstitious today than we were in the Middle Ages, and as an example of modern credulity, he cites the currently widespread belief that the earth is round. The average man, says Shaw, can advance not a single reason for thinking that the earth is round. He merely swallows this theory because there is something about it that appeals to the twentieth-century mentality.
