The big punch - Redux

[Redo]

MK, She doesn’t perceive it as lying to herself. It is what she believes based on her perceptions.

IMO and sadly, most people form theories and opinions then look for facts to fit. If the facts don’t fit they are either discarded or reshaped. (Rewriting history)

When someone is so entrenched in a decision or an opinion that they are reshaping facts then you cannot argue or dissuade them. They have to determine on their own the truth of the matter.

IMO this extends to all of us to one degree or another. It is intrinsic to human nature. It even rears its head in the science community where the scientific method with peer review was developed to counter it.

True indeed JS. Very true.
