drwexYesterday I managed to waste most of an hour sitting through what should have been a professional seminar but turned out to be entirely based on the now-discredited left-brain/right-brain mythology. See http://t.co/kBTnX1VTeJ for details if you're unfamiliar with this one.
This got me to wondering: are there popular beliefs that people insist on perpetuating that irk you?
I'm not thinking of large cultural myth sets like astrology, reflexology, homeopathy, nor specific religious beliefs such as transubstantiation but just this wrong stuff that people seem to have latched onto and won't let go of.
