Mysteries of the Mind

One question, that might be interesting to find an answer to, is: "Why do people believe what they believe?" It may seem naive to even take the time to ask it, and useless to try to answer it. True: most will judge it meaningless because it is undeniable that everybody believes in something (some even believe in 'no-thing!). Such beliefs often involve opposites. 'A' is sure that this is white, while 'B' swears that it is black. And both are perfectly sincere so, from their point of view, they are right. The question can also be considered useless because an answer is impossible, as the human mind works in mysterious ways. Some believe in what one political party says, or a religion, a cult, conspiracies, aliens, parallel universes, quantum physics, Darwin theory etc. - while others deny all this and are convinced that the opposite is true. The only sure thing is that you will never be able to convince a firm believer that he is wrong. After all...who knows? He/she/thy might be right!
