And good for you, gall. But you haven't dissuaded me from my (well somebody's) hypothesis. Think of all the folks who cling to racial stereotypes. I once saw a father on Dr Phil who completely disowned his daughter because she dated a Hispanic guy. There are still large groups of people in the south who "know" that Lincoln was a criminal and evil because of his role in freeing the slaves, and until quite recently it was still illegal to marry outside your race, (and to marry within your gender even now).
Also, most of us were indoctrinated as to the truthfulness of a particular faith early on. Those who were the authorities in our lives made sure that we believed as fact that premises of their religion. And most of us are never able to change those "facts" for the rest of their lives.
