Maybe I'm just more cynical than I thought, but isn't that kind of the biggest draw of religion, organized or cultish? Finding an unfathomable sugar daddy to help make some sense of and/or comfort us through inexplicable realities beyond our ken? Like Entropy, What Happens When We Die, and Why Are Other People Like That.
Elevators must be a real trip, door closes, door opens to a new place
I recently moved into a new apartment building with the first elevators my dogs had ever been in. Could definitely tell they were confused, but they learned to just roll with it. They still don’t quite understand why we can’t get out of the weird moving box when someone else rides with us who lives on a lower floor, though.
We take 99% of what we see and do on faith. We all fly, but how many people can actually pilot an airplane, much less build one. Same with medicines we take,
I assume most people that fly and aren't pilots or build aircraft know that it flies using the wings and engine. That they don't engineering or aerodynamics doesn't mean people find it an incomprehensible horror when a metal box suddenly takes flight.
Horror? No.
Incomprehensible? Yes.
I think you're giving a lot of people too much credit. And children.
