Today’s “Word of the Day” is fatuous and it is an adjective meaning “silly, foolish, stupid, nonsensical, brainless, mindless, pointless, senseless, ridiculous, absurd”.
Example Sentence: It is more than high time to forget the phoney war (a war without actual fighting) between faith and science or art and technology. Belittling (criticizing/laughing at) the imaginative inspiration of authentic science is as fatuous as the view that sees the arts as just a pleasant extra in human life, or religion as an outdated kind of scientific explanation.
