how about we start trying to solve arguments differently from now on...
Consider anything another man says as fake.. even psychiatrists, consider what they say to have no basis or fact.. And base some thoughts on personal experiences, whether they be contradicting the psychiatrists teachers or previous news ads youve seen.. Then compare your personal experiences (especially when you alter your senses (through drugs or mental focus) to what psychiatrists, doctors and scientists say..
I'm not sure what you're getting at here. But like any rational person, I do base what I believe partly on what I learn and partly on what I observe. Teachings can be wrong, and observations can be misinterpreted, but together they're a good check on each other.
psychiatrists can be wrong, many well educated people used to think the world was flat.. some people still believe it.
Actually the educated classes were largely the ones who knew the world was round, in the time of Columbus. They had access to the classical knowledge of the Romans and Greeks, and the Greeks not only knew the Earth was round, but had even calculated a reasonable estimate of its circumference (about 25,000 miles).
I dont know absolutely because Ive taken other peoples word for it, evidence or not, evidence can be incorrect. :D
If by "it" you mean the subliminal message thing, well, there's more to go on here than other people's word. There are volumes upon volumes of scientific study.
People close their minds simply because there is no evidence, this should not be done.. People should be cautious but also be open minded.
This is true.
Of course, some people close their minds even if there is evidence. Some people will hold any belief, no matter how inconsistent, how irrational, or how thoroughly debunked--as long as someone else challenged it, they feel it should be defended no matter how ludicrous or wrong it is, right to the bitter end. It's pretty sad.
