sounds likes thats your confirmation bias brss

It certainly might be!

Now you're catching on

this shit sounds gay

^thats cognitive dissonance

classic tell

if you encounter a study that violates your worldview you should assess it

It normally is triggered when you encounter a worldview that violates your own

and see if it uses proper methodology

and is repeatable

(if applicable)

And how do you know the information you're getting is accurate?

by what I just said

are you this retared

*retarded

we have methodology

repeatable studies

Unless you are an expert in the field....you can't use a study for anything because you don't have the context to be able to know whats going on

This isn't about the scientific method

are you just trying to make a post structuralism argument

This about things that matter to your day to day

like "Who are you voting for for president" and "where am I going to live at"

All of that is decided irrationally

Every time

not necessarily

Humans aren't rational beings. Our minds didn't evolve to see truth, they evolved to keep us alive

This is why you can have a Muslim who believes Muhammed went to heaven going to the grocery store with an atheist who doesn't believe any of that

rational can mean doing things that we feel are in our best interest

Who's right?

so ill vote obama because he will make me feel good

Things that you *feel*

thats rational

And that's where the irrationally kicks in

Nope

It never is

You only think it is because of things like confirmatiuon bias and cognitive dissonance

Oh wait i misread

But yeah

go back to your human studies class kid.

We're agreeing essentially

Shane how old are you
