To avoid emberassment most people will not point out the feeble, disabled, nor the will not admit their own, deepest fallacy, or limitation. Most people cannot come to terms that their lives are finite, that once they die it will not continue, that there may be no saving grace boyond.
Over the millenia were devising things that were not, monsters and the seas that dropped into never ending abbys if you travelled to far from home. People have real talent devising stories. There is a boogey man under each child's bed and there is a different god in each culture.
Some may argue that it is really the same boogey man for all of us, but once some of us grow up we realize that there is really nothing worth mentioning there.
This would be fine, some might argue, since everyone is entitled to their own believes, but what if these believes prevent is from living our lives to the fullest?
What if these false believes cause wars, or cause us not to explore the seas being afraid of the mosters and what if they terriffy the little kid with a boogey man ?
Aren't we supposed to look under the bed, turn the lights on, and have a deep conversation and tell the scared kid -- there is no Boogey man, don't be scared.

My favorite quotations..
“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.” by Robert A. Heinlein
