George Orwell called it 'doublethink'. It's the opposite of cognitive dissonance..
Many believers have also developed the ability to blithely ignore any evidence which conflicts with whatever set of myths they happen to believe.Which particular set is almost invariably an accident of birth.The names Ray Comfort-the-fatuous and Little-Kirky-Cameron-the-developmentally-impaired come to mind.
