Silas- I like your example of interrogation. You rabble rouser, and I say that with utmost respect and love.
I’ve had to throw out a couple of deeply cherished beliefs in my time, and it can be brutal. I try to go back to the question, “What does the evidence indicate?”, and then I have to be willing to look at evidence that I had neglected because I was to fixed or bias to consider it.
I must admit, when I look at the state of the world, I don’t have a hard time believing that much of what currently passes as sense is actually nonsense. Ya know?
