Pre-school children were asked the following question:

"In which direction is the bus pictured below traveling?"

[Linked Image]


Look carefully at the picture.

Do you know the answer?

(The only possible answers are "left" or "right.")


Think about it


Still don't know?


Okay, I'll tell you.


The pre-schoolers all answered "left."

When asked, "Why do you think the bus is traveling in the left direction?"

they answered:





"Because you can't see the door."


How do you feel now ???

I know, me too.

"it's faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, and more money"

LOL That is good.


One way of contrasting science and dogma is to say that a scientist accepts facts as given and belief systems as tentative, whereas a dogmatist accepts the belief system as given; facts are irrelevant. (McCain and Segal)

I was going to say it was a trick question- "bus" in this case would mean ambulance, and the direction it is headed is straight at us, with three people in the front seat & two head lights.
...except that preschoolers wouldn't know "bus" could mean ambulance, in which case I had no idea. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Add another to the "the older I get the less I KNOW" column.
