You know how whenever someone makes a scientific discovery, no one pays attention to it and they keep on believing whatever fancy crud they thought?

Examples:

English explorers: THE WORLD IS ROUND
Society: I DON'T CARE; THE WORLD IS FLAT IF WE WANT IT TO BE FLAT

Sciencey guy whose name I forget (I wasn't exactly the biggest fan of science last year :P): GUYS; FLIES AREN'T BORN FROM ROTTING MEAT, THEY'RE ATTRACTED TO IT
Society: YES THEY ARE BORN FROM IT AND YOUR EVIDENCE MEANS NOTHING

Another sciencey guy: CONTINENTAL DRIFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Society: YOU'RE AN IDIOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT


Society looks like a judgemental moron, right?


Well, here's my realization:

Society is basically just saying, "I don't care what the creators officially confirmed; I like my own headcanon better"
