I read about an experiment once, where monkeys were placed in a room with a ladder leading to a reward. Whenever a monkey attempted to climb the ladder, they were sprayed with water. Over time, new monkeys replaced the original ones, and even though the water spraying ceased, the monkeys continued to prevent each other from climbing the ladder based on learned behavior. This went on and on even though none of the monkeys in the room had ever been sprayed.
I think about that a lot whenever people say they aren't allowed do something, especially because of religion.
Last time I saw it, someone said it was fake. Here's a source I found for that: some guy made it up for his self-help book
I'll be darned, thanks for the correction. Now that you mention it that definitely sounds like the kind of story a self help guru would tell.
