We live in a medieval culture. The paradigms of that culture
will not change. Any (neuroscience) change must be a cultural
change. This means several generational changes in the cultural
inhabitants. Probably a minimum of a hundred years or about
three to five generations. People cannot change these brain
paradigms, new people must be cultured for a different culture
paradigm to become canonic. The "old" must literally die off.
On top of that may be self experience delusions that come from
millions of years of pragmatic evolution.
These neuroscience vs. folk lore paradigm conflicts are not similar to such
as learning how to fly with fixed wing vs. flapping wings.
