      I had the same thought! Humanity needs to move past religion if we ever hope to progress socially, medically, finically etc.

    I remember those days very well. It was scarier than covid. Many things now considered “normal” were unheard of on September 10th, 2001.

    🤯This is a brilliant demonstration of how individual anxiety transforms into a collective physical reality. The thin line between ‘contagion’ and ‘connection’ is not just a medical fact; it’s the sheer power of shared trauma and subconscious social pressure. Where does our ‘free will’ stand when individual anxiety is socially transmitted into a mass physical manifestation. . A striking analysis👏🏻
