Modern people are smart and everybody in the past was dumb.

All that religion and mysticism. All that stuff about gods, little people, spirits, elves, afterlife, etc. Stuff that all the smart people talked about for thousands of years.

It's all wrong. They were all just dumb.

Does that count as romanticizing too?

The problem is modern people are in fact not smarter. We're in fact doing the exact same thing we've always been doing
