It just shows that many people are quick to be negative and for some reason unwilling to consider alternative possibilities.
Remember that negative and critical viewpoints are normally perceived to be from the the more intelligent person. Unfortunately people who are more accepting of new and novel ideas can at first seem like the less intelligent of the group. (Probably because they are not quick to dismiss and put down a thing, and thus have less to say at first glance)
The only solution is to think for yourselves and research the positions presented.
