Intelligent people don't "believe in" scientific theories, rather they accept the best possible explanation for observable reality until a better explanation is found through testing...
I like that...
This is my approach in developing life philosophies...
A paradigm may not be completely accurate/all-encompassing but it can be a useful stepping stone towards further enlightenment...
Autistic motto:
"Give me a better argument and I will listen..."
All improvements will be assimilated...
Resistance is futile...
Regarding the conclusion of this thread's discussion:
"Are we there yet?"

But it does not necessarily have to be simple concepts...
Generally they aren't, based on the reaction of mainstream (non-academic) individuals...
I suspect many people think I am speaking gibberish, btw...
When in actuality it is horchschtapler gibberish...

Essentially what I mean by "low hanging fruit" are concepts/constructs which I have been primed to accept as a result of previous incidences of enlightenment...
Cascading "revelations" requiring little personal effort, if you will...
I too am a lazy philosopher...
An "aha/eureka experience" junky...
