Too bad someone did not read kant the adventures of Henny Penny. A chicken eats lunch one day, and believes the sky is falling down because an acorn falls on her head. She decides to tell the King, and on her journey meets other animals who join her in the quest. The moral being if one wishes to convince a populace of imminent doom, choose the dumbest individual and convince them that "the sky is falling"! In turn, this individual will convince others based upon the belief that more intelligent beings will be persuaded by the dumber being; "if Chicken Licken believes this to be true it must be true", surely! After all, she's too dumb to "make it up".
