What if my instinctual belief was that the earth was flat, as was the case with Charles K. Johnson? He ended up unfulfilled and dead after 30 years of tirelessly trying to have his ideas accepted by society as a whole.
I don't NOT trust my instincts but I don't have any reason to believe that if I feel instinctive about something that it's going to actually be the case. Instincts are subjective, I believe we should strive towards the objective. If I feel instinctively that a ball hidden in a box is blue then someone takes it out and shows me that it's yellow, then i'm not going to argue. What I get frustrated with is that science is constantly showing people the 'colour' of the proverbial 'ball' and people STILL want to believe nonsense like magic, crystal power, chakras etc etc.
Anyway dude, I sense you're getting a little hostile. I don't want to make you feel that way. I fundamentally disagree with you but I also love living in a world where we can disagree. If everyone had the same ideas it would be a pretty boring place! |
