Facts vs Beliefs


We live in a society that has strong beliefs in everything around us. Whether it is to vaccinate our child, believe in a certain religion or vote for someone running for office. The problem is not that we do not have the information available to make informed decisions as a country, it comes down to how we process the real from the fake news. Humans want to always be right even when they are wrong. "we're open to new information – but only if it confirms our existing beliefs. We find ways to ignore facts that challenge our ideals." This leads to misunderstandings, backlash between citizens, and war with other countries.
