Based Camp with Simone & Malcolm Collins | Witches & Space Travel: There is a Reason Abrahamic Faiths Have Prohibitions Against Witchcraft @SimoneandMalcolm | Uploaded February 2024 | Updated October 2024, 17 minutes ago.
Malcolm and Simone explain how and why mysticism and witchcraft corrupt rational thinking, even though they can emotionally comfort people lacking perceived control. Practices like horoscopes hijack brains by providing alternate physical "truths" without logic or evidence. This is fine on Earth but would endanger space exploration, where physics understanding is essential. Allowing some controlled traditional mysticism can act as an "idiot trap" though, concentrating dangers.
