Oscar Wilde said The old Believe Everything, The middle aged Suspect Everything, The young Know everything
There is truth to this statement, and by all accounts the human race has achieved it's great design- Eternal Youth. The majority of the human race thinks they know everything, has long since ceased suspecting anything, and yet believes everything, causing a paradox whereby they are both very old and very young.
And sometimes The very young do not always do as they are told, as said in a sci fi show I enjoy. They should have listened, and we should have too.
