Why Facts Don’t Change Our Minds
New discoveries about the human mind show the limitations of reason.

As everyone who’s followed the research—or even occasionally picked up a copy of Psychology Today—knows, any graduate student with a clipboard can demonstrate that reasonable-seeming people are often totally irrational. Rarely has this insight seemed more relevant than it does right now. Still, an essential puzzle remains: How did we come to be this way?

You know the great thing about admitting you are wrong about something? You don't have to be wrong anymore.

Become the kind of person that when your feet hit the floor in the morning, Satan groans and says, "OH NO, HE'S AWAKE".
