We all know the voice of God. Right?
Male, big, low in frequency, booming.
What if the voice of God were presented to us as the opposite: female, small, higher in frequency, soft and kind?
Established stereotypes are quite effective. If an authoritative figure offers their advice on something we're far more likely to believe it than if it were presented by an irritating internet troll.
Despite the facts or truth of the matter.
Well intentioned self-proclaimed experts and authorities often set us on the wrong course and sometimes with disastrous consequences. Consider the fate of poor Galileo who was placed under house arrest for his entire life for saying the sun, not the Earth, was the center of the solar system; or, Ignaz Semmelweis who was ridiculed and ostracized by his medical peers for advocating hand-washing to reduce puerperal fever, only to be posthumously vindicated by the advent of germ theory, which made hand hygiene a cornerstone of modern medicine.
Now, where was that note about all similar measuring amplifiers sounding the same?
Ahhh, the garbage where it belongs.
