Why we can't "change" our (or others) minds
#18
RE: Why we can't "change" our (or others) minds
Faith no more. I wish I had said that. I think you have a pretty good explanation for what I, too, see as some sort of general clinging to our current world view. No doubt most would likely say: "not me", and it seems to me that many really do have an easier time adjusting to new input.

The discussion about evolution is a good case in point. To me, the evidence is so overwhelming that not seeing seems almost intentionally blind
