Re: cognitive dissonance. Well, yes, but why do some people resolve the dissonance by abandoning the dissonant belief, and others by compartmentalizing and building up defenses for the belief? I don't get it either, unless it's primarily a random process. Most people being aligned with resolving their dissonance by going deeper into belief, as opposed to a few who are oriented toward reconciling their beliefs with the facts. I just don't get it either.
