Just thinking about all the thoughts I've harbored and stuck throughout the years of my life. And realizing that a lot of the thoughts/beliefs I used to hold (and even insisted on in my mind) are no longer my thoughts/beliefs. In other words, I've been wrong so many times intellectually speaking.
For example:
I went from believing God must be existing to God most likely exists to God may or may not exist but is likely to exist to now, very recently, the opposite side of the theism/atheism spectrum (i.e. God may or may not exist but is likely not to exist).
I went from believing in free will (a belief I held for many years) to determinism.
I went from believing truth must be absolute to being skeptical about the absoluteness of truth.
I went from believing demons and spirits exist to them not existing.
I went from believing the American government caused the 9/11 events to a bunch of misguided Muslim terrorists causing them.
I went from believing in no man-made global warming to a belief in an actual man-made global warming.
I went from believing fluoridation was wrong and harmful and pernicious to the opposite.
I went from believing Bible scholars can't be trusted to "better trust them than trust a bunch of laymen".
I went from believing liberal religion was more irrational than fundamentalism to thinking "it doesn't matter which is more irrational because they're both irrational anyway"
And so on.
Some of the beliefs listed above were ditched some years ago. And others just a year ago or two. And a few just relatively recently.
And all because of knowledge and learning and reading a lot of books.
Just goes to show how many of us don't really know as much as we think we know.
Please share your thoughts.
