I meant in the same sense that you meant the statement about cultures, i.e., if you ask an average member of the culture, you'll get different answers for what is true depending on the culture.
I was talking about community consensus, not whatever nonsense is being spouted by the man-on-the-street.
As you noted, the belief of the average person is seldom a reliable indicator (our even all that coherent). That's why we don't measure a society's scientific knowledge that way.
Ok, my point still stands.
