@Infovore,
Well, see here's the problem with 'not thinking'.
It would be a wonderful thing if we lived in a static world.
But we don't !
What we 'think' - what we 'believe' - what we think we understand is only as good as the knowledge & facts available to us at the time we make that decision.
But the world changes constantly. And there is usually more information out there that we haven't encountered yet.
Right now this disease is at epidemic proportion. People have gathered a small handful of sound bites, visual clips etc, assimilated them as THE TRUTH, and basically stopped thinking & questioning.
'Thinking' is a process in search of truth. And it seems there are few - if any - absolute truths in existence.
Shutting off the thinking process leaves you stuck to a rock in a moving stream.
