What TS is getting at - our values/biases(the patterns imprinted )put blocks to accepting some views- its a visceral reaction not so much a cognitive, conscious one - partly because of the dire consequences attached to that view/action... When you are persistently exposed to that view/action without the negative consequences that you expected/feared, over a period of time , the brain gets reprogrammed to not have that visceral reaction that blocks the cognitive process - and you start analysing and move closer to acceptance This is why I believe constant exposure to violence in movies/video games is bad for kids - cos it takes that mental block away  The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim | ||

Only when you move to the opposite position ...people are always right in their mind .. we just learn and change our minds as we learn and process new stuff.. WE learn new stuff, we filter that based on our biases and build a new position ...till we introspect carefully we are not going to even recognize that wehave a bias, let alone accept that the decision is not objective The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim | ||

Howdy Among those three I think I am an Agnostic that has taken a position that there is a God Reason I say that - I am absolutely comfortable with my son claiming to be an atheist , my husband being the god fearing theist- and can argue on behalf of either of them without being terrified that God will punish me And I pray to that God cos it makes me feel better If it makes God feel better and if She exists she will help me out.. if not, because I am feeling better my brain works better, and I will find solutions - either way , placebo or real it works for me The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim | ||

this goes back to learning, and not just conscious learning. our mind keeps perceiving things, and there are many things we learn involuntarily. some key responses to events are inherent to each species. so persistence might make our brain to imprint patterns on its neurons and eventually lets us consciously(which can be termed as ego). Interesting point you have made here, but what level of persistence, and can something that caused this new learning, be undone by a conscious effort?
trust me, i never wish for anything. I think the last time i wished something was when i saw a small kid begging in railway station. to me even if god exists, im too significant for me to believe that my wishes are anything of his concern | ||

For objective problems, your intellect has to be convinced. example, you are trying to compare cars and decide which one is the best. The salesman should present features of the car and try to prove his product is superior. subjective things lo convince avvadam antu undadu. by nature you will be inclined towards a view. If some one objectively proves otherwise, we will change our opinion For ex, I was dead against accepting hindi as a national language. But now, I understand the importance of it. All it took was someone explaining me that it is nothing but sanskrit. i was convinced. | ||

since creation of such drastic incidents is beyond our control...persistence is the key....and thats what anyone in the business of conversions do.....persistently approach...mm There is altogether a different way....but that needs, as people in this thread say, giving up of ego. And that way is a debate....but it needs real experts who are open to the possibility of either of the outcomes....m keka link: fikileaks, | ||

 10 times sadivaa.. vokka mukka ardham kaaledu. To me, God does exist. Chinnappudu nammaanu.. ippudu nammuthaanu. Ippudu vonly difference is I don't believe that anything will change. Prayers and Hopes are useless. Agnosticism to me is acknowledging that there is so much out of our hands, and there is only so much that we can do, and it is definitely better to be aloof within our means. There was once a little kid that prayed for a bicycle. God never gave him one. So he stole one, and then prayed for Forgiveness!!! | ||

acceptance is not related to rationality. it is based on ego, and does not require a particular rational reasoning to change a stand. I for some reason have a feeling that it is part of genetic makeup! dont get me wrong, im not trying to shy away from the responsibility of the stands we take, but i believe some personality traits play an important role in the way decisions are made. and Acceptance is one such decision. Mathematical ga cheppali ante, its an expression with multitude of variables, including genes. I am agnostic, and the reason i believe im an agnostic is for there to be a concrete proof one way or the other. the lack of proof in one direction does not necessarily sway me in the other direction. If i were to take a guess today, there is no god, but that is just a guess for me today, even though i overwhelmingly feel that is true. think of it this way, if osama were an athiest he would still be the same extreme person, albiet with a different idelogy. the acceptance for him of a believer would be as outrageous as the acceptance of a kafir today. | ||

A small thought experiment... when/how can you be convinced with the opposite view? What are the necessary and sufficient conditions for you to accept the opposite view? Believers: When can you accept that there is no God. Non Believers: When can you accept that there is God Agnostics: When can you take a position. Can be extended to any other topic... may be politics. Can our biases be uncovered!!? |
