I think that some people have a difficult time believing that those who are the epitome of dreams and fears can really exist and if they did that such a paragon could ever really die. Mankind has a habit of trying to make gods of themselves in order to adjust to the fact that their true Creator is so unreachable.They then turn around and, paradoxically, try to make their self-made gods just as unassailable as the true one.
And they question, much the same way we all do... to learn.

Almost all the things we are taught to believe are misunderstood lies and half-truths. The real question should be, why do you blindly believe everything you are told? Why don't you examine all the evidence and come to your own conclusions? I know, I know... thinking for yourself is hard work, especially when it could cause you to miss Dancing with the Stars or American Idol!

BECAUSE PEOPLE ALWAYS WANT TO BELIEVE IN SOMETHING MORE, AND WHO KNOWS MAYBE THEY'RE THE SANE ONES AND THE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE EVERYTHING THEY ARE TOLD BY THE GOVERNMENT OR ANY HIGHER AUTHORITY ARE THE CRAZY ONES. REMEMBER JUST BECAUSE I'M PARANOID DOESN'T MEAN THEY;RE NOT AFTER ME.

Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it.
Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held.
Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books.
Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin.
Believe nothing just because someone else believes it.
Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true
Nothing in life is to be feared, It is only to be understood.
Love & Blessings

Because people can never listen to reason. Whatever comforts them must be the actual truth... to them.

people want to have something to argue about, the world would be dull if everyone agreed all the time.
