The point I am trying to make is that biases are so ingrained into us that they are impossible to escape from. There is no "overcoming" them. And we need bias because it helps direct our actions. Biases i.e. perceptions are actually the closest thing we actually have to rationality because without them, we are nothing but an entity without a brain. We developed biases as a species due to out large brains. Biases and perceptions give us a structure or paradigm or lens through which we view the world and we are better off with those paradigms than without them because we still do not have the brain capacity (processing power/good enough senses) to actually rationally think in a way that is at the root of how our brains actually work. Anytime you have something like death means that whatever entity that embodies that, it will have to adapt to that as the sole focus. We are necessarily geared towards preventing our own death. As such, we have adapted many mechanisms that do not "play nicely" with rationality. Fear is one such example of this. Someone who is terrified cannot think logically. A person full of fear thinks instinctively and this is much more at the core of our psyche than rationality ever will be. You might argue that a person is not always fearful. Fair enough, but consider that how interested we are in something is on a sliding scale and not an on off switch. This alone should tell you that we are far more variable and complex then can fit so easily into a rational system where logic is the primary mode of understanding.

Just no were in your silly collection of fables . And their is frag all proof that the universe was created . The universe is not fine tuned . And DNA does not support your contentions .
