I know i changed my mind about acceptable careers. I used to think lawyers were evil and I would never be a lawyer. Then I came to beleive lawyers were good and became one. Or maybe I became one and determiend they were good. i cannot remember the order. In either case, I considered new facts.
But mthe original article deals mainly with engrained political issues I think…
And when presented with contrary facts, it actually makes the person beleive the original factually wrong position even more.
There seems to be no hope for rational discussion! That’s why it’s a good thing we have attorneys.
I don’t think I’ve changed my mind so much as lost interets in the whole political demo-repub thing. it just faded out for me way early in life, decades ago; I had a friend in the late 80’s who was selling t-shirts that said “Bush-Dukakis” back in i think 88; had them put togetehr arm in arm pre-photoshop.? He was ahead of his time ina way. wish i had one of those shirts. It’s all one big dumb thing. I’m registered green for no particular reason other than it’s not dems or pubs.
i think for brian, the underlying similarity that doesn’t change is, dem or pub, the main thing is to be irritating! 😉 …i can relate to that, personally.
