Why Science is Ignored

This article talks about something I had never thought about much. It discusses how science in popular culture has become linked with evil. It's the mad scientists who understands physics, not the heroes. This, the author claims, is why most people, Americans especially, do not pay attention to science. The article points out that even reading the article makes the reader unique or at least unusual. People no longer care about science like they used to do hundreds of years ago. This is because science has done and is capable of doing frightening things. It may be most peoples' favorite subject in high school, but beyond that, science seems to make people leary by its very possibilities.
