Cognitive Dissonance
Friday, January 7, 2011
In progress.
About 2 years ago I began a journey that started with a couple of realizations about myself, my life and my situation. 2 years later, I've come a long ways and still have a long ways to go, but I finally feel like I have something to contribute. I plan to use my tiny corner of the Blogosphere as a sop box, a place from where I will reach out and try to free people of the oppressive constraints of religion, share actual facts about the advancements of science and open people's eyes to truth about the people who are running their country and their lives. I am sure the vast majority will find me extremely controversial, which is fine, I want to rouse people out of their seats, push the limits of their comfort zones, encourage them to investigate and understand what they believe and help them open their minds through the use of logic and reason. Richard Dawkins hit the nail on the head in the introduction to his book The God Delusion, when he said people often don't realize they have a choice. A choice to genuinely question the beliefs of their parents, of their childhood and of their society. I not only suggest that we all have a choice, but we have a duty to all of mankind to investigate and understand everything we believe.
