The Dumbening

Do you get the feeling the world is getting dumber? It seems that every year people say and do stupider things. If there was ever an argument against evolution the sliding intelligence of the world could be it. Of course, maybe in this age the fittest are also the dumbest. The pace of the world has much to do with it I think. Who has time to study or even read a book? When information is needed it's expected to be delivered right away in the simplest manner possible. Video, magazines and the internet are the resources of the day. I look bleakly at the future when the world is filled with dullards.
