They are not falsehoods they are Beliefs. According to Shermer in The Believing Brain even if they listen carefully information contrary to the Belief System is not even processed by the brain. There is a filtering system in the brain popularly called conceptual blocks but scientifically observable that automatically routes contrary information to the trash file of the brain. It is not hilarious; it is an unfortunate function of a believer's brain. That is why it has been a practice on this board for many years to refer to such incorrect beliefs as BS a Belief System which generally contains varying amounts of the bucolic BS. Hat tip to AciraZade for this concept. Note the color of the page. |
