[QUOTE="Jer1cho, post: 216269"] Yeah, i agree totally dude. The main reason people choose to believe something, is because they understand every possible angle that the situation has. Reasons why people refuse to believe it, is due to lack of understanding. I, for one, read a book a couple of years ago called the da Vinci code. Now, this book got totally BLASTED by the media. Yet, every single person that had an issue with it had never read the book, or even seen the movie when it came out! I heard many people say things like: " i refuse to read it because it's a lie", and God this and Church that, bla bla bla! But when you understand these things through knowledge gained by actually doing research on the subject, you see it in a different light. Another thing i think is an issue, is brainwashing. This is very VERY common. Anyone see these things about the "Illuminati"? Wow have i seen a lot of doccies and shows on this! But like CA says, you only ever hear one side of the argument, which basically means being a sheep, and becoming brainwashed in whichever side of the story you heard first. With regards to the atom splitting thing, i actually don't know jack about it, but would really like to read up on it a bit more. The only thing i know about CERN and anti-matter is from what i have read in Angels and Demons. lol. But yeah, i was just illustrating on how and why people choose to believe what they believe on these kinds of subjects. Personally, i never really make up my mind! I believe it one day, then don't the next... Guess I'm a black sheep then huh? :P [/QUOTE]
