I don't mean that most people are not capable of thinking. I just don't think that most people understand how much there is to know out there. Most people don't know that electrons don't really spin around the nucleus like planets. Most people don't know that there is anything known as higher criticism. Most lay people in the church aren't aware of all the differing views of theology that are out there.
People are ignorant of all that's out there, on both sides of the issue.
And maybe I'm completely wrong.
