Naturally occurring oxygen…
I guess. It’s all been created in naturally occurring supernovas, or through naturally occurring radioactive decay.

I can understand, if not accept, the resistance of the religious fundies and Qnuts and right-wing Know-Nothings to getting vaccines – they have baked-in ignorance as an excuse. But the anti-vaxx stances of the educated liberals and progressives who buy into the kind of New-Age woo being parodied here enraged me long before COVID hit.

It is all religion, right? The idea that everything natural is better for us and anything man produced is clearly polluting the environment is just as faith based as god did it. In fact it really is the same idea. Both just substituting dogma for actual thinking.

Fundie religion, yes: the kind that sells fraudulent promises to the marks. Education and critical-thinking skills should offset it, but apparently not for everyone.

Religion is the suspension (or lack) of reasoning in favor of faith. One can easily worship at the alter of Science as God. Critical thinking would offset it but that is often sadly absent. Education is only useful as far as you use it to inform your critical-thinking.
