thebigvladI made an account here just to reply to this, because I was thinking the exact same thing as Moegahdeeshoo. I loved the part at the end. While the non-intuitive nature of some aspects of science causes some to dismiss it, I think it's also a big part of why others, including myself, are so fascinated by science.
The best part is what he said at the very end. Most of the stuff that the everyday person learns about science growing up tends to align pretty well with their gut feeling. But when it starts getting down to more complicated problems, not much is really intuitive. It bothers me when people are so quick to dismiss established science just because "it doesn't seem right" to them.
