Haha, that is a very interesting question, one that was I think a bit explained below, but you seem to be open minded, which is great! but just like you believe it is bullshit (which it is), your mind is just as open minded about it being real. I quote /u/Ish_the_Stomach
> Helping the subject stay relaxed and open minded to the possibility that the cards have something to say to them.
That said if you're interested, pm and I can send you two books that I've read on these types of subjects called:
Predictably Irrational by Dan Ariely
and
[Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion] (https://www.amazon.com/Influence-Psychology-Persuasion-Robert-Cialdini/dp/006124189X) by Robert Cialdini
They are good ebooks and to anwer your question. Humans are wired that way.
Well, regarding Fermat's Last Theorem, it indeed was written by Aczel, as could easily be determined by following the link in the article. However, it looks like there are 100s of books with a similar name. The one your read by Simon Singh was called: Fermat's Enigma.
You weren't misled, you just "misremembered".
For more great writing by Aztec, Maya, Inca, Cherokee, and Iroquois leaders and writers through the centuries, I highly recommend Ronald Wright's Stolen Continents.
Maybe he would benefit from reading "A Manual for Creating Atheists"? The procedure described there is non-confrontational.
The God Virus
From the comments.
"the author uses the metaphor of religion as a virus to explain how religious ideas pass from individual to individual and infiltrate society."
You'll realize why people of religion behave the way they do, even if they don't realize it.
Highly recommended.
There is a page like that in this book http://www.amazon.com/God-Which-Simon-Kepler-ebook/dp/B00GXXRH9A
Were you really surprised? They're adults who have invisible friends.
Time to shop.
Magic of Reality: How We Know What's Really True
Get the hardcover, it's illustrated.
It's from Awkward Moments Children's Bible. It's kind of a satirical book, but not really, since it simply depicts what's written in the Bible.
