What is something that you have changed your mind about?
I used to think strawberries were ugly, but now I think they're just slightly below average attractiveness.
I don't change my mind much. The only things that come to mind are
- I was raised a Christian, I was a hardcore believer, then eventually I apostatized
- I was a Republican when I was younger, I believed the government should be as small as possible, then I changed to Democrat
- After apostatizing from Christianity, I was unsure about whether there's a God for many years, now I'm more sure
- I used to believe more strongly in an afterlife (separately from the whole Christian thing), now I'm not as sure
- I used to think the Heaven's Gate cult was clearly insane, now I think, WTF do I know? For all I know, maybe reality really does work that way; maybe they hitched a ride on that comet and went to a better place. Maybe their leader was a truly wise man who gained such a devout following by demonstrating his wisdom.
I used to have some hope, but electoral politics is dead in America - nothing will get better under the current system, democracy is already ruined, national elections are rigged before anybody ever casts a vote, neither party would never let anyone but an absolute psychopath get anywhere near the presidency - it is going to take something absolutely horrible happening before anything can even start to get better
The Multiverse. It is an idea and a bit of a religious view on things with no evidence whatsoever. But people find it hard to admit they know nothing when we know nothing.
Smoking. It’s not for me, personally, but I’m less judgmental about it than I used to be.
