    Belief is social. If you’re surrounded by people that all believe a thing, you’re more likely to also believe. If challenged on something that threatens group membership, your brain reacts like it’s a physical threat. Group membership is that important. Facts matter far less.

    This happens to everyone.

      There’s basically a 100% chance that OP believes something equally as unprovable as religion.
