"I Know the Truth, So Don't Bother Me with Facts." Summary





I Know the Truth, So Don't Bother Me with Facts




In the article " I know the Truth, So Don't Bother Me with Facts," adapted from Jeffrey Kluger, point out how humans have been easily gulled by rumors, beliefs and "flat-out lies."  In a new study realized by R. Kelly Garrett and Erik Nisbet assistant professors at Ohio State University concluded that, first at all is easy to manipulate people beliefs, because is easy to influence on people that don't know the facts or basis of their beliefs.  Secondly a very few percent  will keep their beliefs even if they see a contradictory evidence, because they feel sure about their beliefs. As a matter of fact it could be ego too because none of us like to admit that we could be wrong. As well I think our beliefs play a huge role in how we view our life.
