How nice it must be to be able to simply ignore all understanding with a wave of the hand.

"I don't like what we know about _______, so I'm just going to pretend it's not real."

I can't imagine not feeling deep and inescapable shame if I had to ignore some known fact in order to maintain an ideology.

That's what cognitive dissonance is for, brah. Like my Gwynnies is whack, and one of these days this top is going to spin right off of the table over her pseudoscientific bullshit - ain't gonna be pretty - but it's a hella ride til then. Big Grin

And I've got a justification, always good to have an extra set of those. Wink
