How do we know this statement is true? Just because you posted it on the Internet?

I can't believe you all let me get away with this.

Well, the truth is that before the internet, I had no idea the extent to which people believe whatever they want to believe regardless of any evidence or reason to the contrary. I've been on line since about 1995 and I am still astonished by the persistence of this human trait. I hate to say it but it has further convinced me that we humans are essentially insane: meaning not in conscious cognition of reality.

I assumed you were being rather tongue in cheek, based on what I do know of your humility from your previous posts.

I have to agree with you 100% here. And what I have noticed is that there are many intelligent people that do this exact thing. It seems to be more of an emotional defense mechanism, rather than a lack of empathy for others. Yet I do realize how such attitudes and behaviors can be translated into great harm through negligence. This is probably the single most motivational factor which keeps me coming back to this site.
