    actually, “Jupiter” would not exist as a concept if not for someone raised without it inventing it in the first place.

    People are influenced by their environment for sure, but not only is the environment influenced by the people too, there are also myriad other determining factors at play.

      Yes, so people’s environment shapes their ideas. Brains do not secrete thought like Bile.

        People’s environment can INFLUENCE their ideas, sure, but it doesn’t DICTATE them regardless of all other factors.

        And fyi sometimes Brians DO secrete, but they’ll thank you not to draw attention to their embarrassing medical issue.

                Nah, I’ve just realized that there’s no talking you out of your delusion, so I might as well have a little fun with it 🤷
