Heard this on Rachel Maddow this evening and decided to check it out.

Could explain a lot!

I always figured that people on the right suffered from bad wiring upstairs.

I find this topic very interesting.


Couple it with nature -vs- nuture and you've got some food for thought.

It could be, early acceptance of somethings that would normally be understood to be beliefs, does harm in later life as that confusion then impacts ones ability to reason rationally.

I'm not there where people are born that way. I do think some are more prone to have this happen than others are, but we all are born with the ability to reason and adapt.

Katherine Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart speaking in the African Queen:

Charlie Allnut: A man takes a drop too much once in a while, it's only human nature.

Rose Sayer: Nature, Mr. Allnut, is what we are put in this world to rise above.

Just because it's human nature doesn't mean it's right, good, correct or desirable. There's plenty of evil human nature, including greed, hatred, gluttony, envy and lust, among others.
