68. Thank you for your thoughtful reply
Okay I will accept your explanation of, one's world view, hence the need for what one choose to believe or not believe, having to fit that view. That is your meaning, right? I won't pretend to understand it, but I am willing accept it as a reason some are so willing to believe without questioning the facts. What I don't understand is, why some have such a limited world view, why everything has to either fit that view or be completely rejected? It would seem to me that by limiting one's self to a particular world view and rejecting anything that doesn't fit in that world view while accepting everything that does fit in that world view , they are leaving themselves open too be lead by the very sources who try to shape their world view through biased news reporting and advertising campaigns which they so willing support. Not sure if that makes any sense to you. I am not the best at trying to articulate my thoughts.
