I hope it is not just me, but I find Reagan's "Star Wars" defense plan to be quite idiotic. It is extremely difficult for me to believe that a mass group of people seriously thought that the government was going to place some sort of missile mechanism in space that would shoot bombs out of the air. Yet people did! And this leads me to question our intelligence as a human race. We are so quick and eager to accept anything told to us by some "authority," and so rarely do we appear to hold the same analytical nature that distinguished us from the rest of the primate order. I believe the moment we allowed it to become common law to merely accept and not question is the moment we may have failed as a species. We freely allowed the Secret Invasion to occur and the Skrulls presence in our world is our own punishment. Long live the Skrull Empire!!!
