I was arguing that we live in a post-literate post-numeracy world where most people have not learned the basics of science. Even people who have scientific or engineering education don't know much about other disciplines. Most modern scientific research does not play well to the public because they do not have the tools and knowledge necessary to understand.
I would like to see science and technology more accessible, but that means the public needs to learn more science and mathematics. And, it means that some members will need to abandon some of their beliefs, which are not supported by evidence.
