Most People are Stupid

And cannot realize this. They are stupid in two ways: (1) they do not know much. and (2) they consider this the proper way to be.

This is obviously a problem, but how much of a problem is it?

I was born and raised a Mormon, and one of their key beliefs is in the Book of Mormon. Which is nothing. Now that I have dropped out of the Church, I can ask myself "What do they see in it?"

One answer is "It gives them something stupid to believe in!" And for many people this a vital necessity. They have to have something to believe in, and it has to be stupid.
