Damnthatxanadu, et al.
I am talking about superstition, not imagination. That is clear isn't it? Imagination is fantastic. Superstition is wrongly applied imagination. And it only serves to put you in a small box. Superstitions are repressive. All of those lovely things you list were the product of imagination and rationality NOT superstition.
Where would the human race be if there had been more ivanveen's? Well we'd be zipping around in zero emmissions hovercraft in an ecological paradise that's where we'd be. Our current president is a deeply superstitious man, that is what drives him, and look where it has taken us? Nothing good comes out of superstition.
Damnthatxanadu, I suggest you brush up on your western history. You might start with The dark ages, then move to the Rennaisance, the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution.
Btw. I live in a box the size of the universe. It is the "spitritual" seekers and the superstitious who live in tiny boxes, confined by their own neediness and lack of imagination; and you are the ones who drag us down, one way or the other.
