I see this all the time. I see it in femininsm. I see it in political talk about what people THINK is going on in the world. I see it in science conversations, even religious talk. People will just start citing information from books, written literature, as the absolute facts and truth just because they read it and trust the sources. They procede to call those who haven't read it, dumb, wrong, and beneath them, and continue to feel, as though they're right.
Some will even show them something in reality that proves what they say they read is wrong, but they still dismiss even what happens right before their eyes.
Why do people do this? Why do so many people follow written information & believe in it, even call it fact, when they truly have no real proof in the accusations they make? What ever happened to true logic, like actually going beyond someone elses written statistics to find the facts yourself without jaded perception? What ever happened to REALLY looking for answers?
