[Mind's Eye] Re: ...a failure to communicate...

Hey Rigsy,

All good questions.

A lack of self examination caused by many factors I would imagine. As
we grow older we do get a little umm set in out ways. That is our
ideas, principles, and beliefs are there, and continue to evolve the
longer we continue to be.

Given then a life's times worth of setting an idea, it becomes harder
to reconise new data which may act to change that idea. Hah I can say
for sure that I have noticed this in me, but also, some people rarely
or never examine their beliefs or ideals, or principles.

Perhaps they do not belive they should, or do not relish the idea of
doing so because of the possible changes to self or psyhcy?

I guess all in all these are deep questions, with many causes, I would
not be suppriesd if much of it turned out to be due to genetic
propensity for emotional response.

Hahah should we all strive to be a little bit 'normal' and a little
bit socialpathic!?
