Broken Conservatives
Okay, maybe it’s not JUST conservatives – but something that I’ve noticed a lot of, and it irks me, is people who insist on being blantantly wrong, just to prove they have faith in what they’ve been taught.
People who will defend a position even when actual evidence that they are wrong exists in such a way that no reasonable being would even consider attempting to dispute it.
One of the things I like most about how I am as a person is, if someone proves me wrong, it pleases me – not because I like to be wrong (hate it, thanks), but because it means I’ve learned something new.
I can’t even begin to comprehend the concept that, in the face of concrete, factual evidence, someone would write the evidence off as something as silly as “liberal conspiracy”
I mean, fact and evidence are what they are – just blaming something on a conspiracy when the facts don’t support your point of view is foolhardy… it’s not like anyone will ever come up with any facts that will disprove religion and completely shatter your worldview – same as nobody will ever have any physical proof that it’s correct… it’s simply not possible… but things that can be proven?
suck it up, call it a learning experience
