Just A Thought ~ WHEN WE SEE WE’RE WRONG, CHANGE

"It often happens that scientists say, 'You know, that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. I can’t recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion."

~ Carl Sagan, American Astronomer and Author, 1934 -1996 ~

How firmly we hold onto our views and beliefs, afraid to consider for a moment that they might be wrong. In order to arrive at its present state, for example, science in the West was confronted and impeded every step of the way by religion, and there are still many people who believe in the myth of Creation, as found in the Bible!
