to maintain it is really difficult,
because you are doing something against nature.

and is ready to share those opinions -
labeling them as "truth."

However, if we have heard the same opinion for years
from our parents, friends,
government officials, or religious leaders,
we are more likely to believe without questioning
than to raise our filter of skepticism
and ask the hard questions.
