Amazing displays of ignoranceSandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

Seeing a few teacher comments brought this back to me.....At primary school rougly around 1983 me and a mate were having an argument about who was on the earth first, white or black people. At the time we were in a history lesson, so thought this would be the perfect place to ask the teacher, I was convinced black people were, just because of the cradle of life (Africa) etc although mordern thinking suggests it's inconclusive(I think). Without skipping a beat the teacher turned around to us and said "oh that was white people they were on the earth first"...to this day not sure if this was ignorance or the fact that she was a little bit racict in her views...In the unlikely event that you look at BT3A, Mrs Longstaff, I never did beleieve you, may have been the guilty look on your face after you said it.
