As I have grown older in life; I find that my mind is more open to new ideas-and even old ones. I even chuckle at my self when I looked at certain things to be true AND now believe the opposite!
It is my intent to gradually help you along to see what less than 1% of the people in the world know. The problem is if I blurted it out; a common mental obstruction called "Cognitive dissonance" would cause you to close this blog and lose the knowledge I intend to help you gain. You have now been introduced to "Cognitive dissonance"; you should look that up. Many minds, at this point, will be tempted to think "this guy wants something"; but we all know I am blogging on STEEMIT. If I do not produce what I say, I lose your interest and we know what that means.
I will divulge that I will ask you to do homework? Still with me? One of those things I learned is I should never loan a book to someone. Since I have had people loan me a book-which I never read-it has become clear to me that things I learn come from things that I want to do. Rule #(over a hundred) is never loan someone a book, suggest they buy it for themselves.
I will now attempt to help us get to the next blog by suggesting you give thought to the quotes below and simply say, I truly am going to move this blog along to "A GREAT DELUSION-WANT TO KNOW WHAT IT IS":
"There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments, and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance—that principle is contempt prior to investigation."
— Attributed to Herbert Spencer
◄ Proverbs 18:13 ►
He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.
— King James Version
THE ULTIMATE IGNORANCE IS THE REJECTION OF SOMETHING YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT
YET REFUSE TO INVESTIGATE -UNKNOWN AUTHOR
"It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled."
~Mark Twain
