So far it has not failed me. I have considered that I may be wrong, and in fact I have changed my thinking as I learn. For instance, I used to not believe the theory of evolution was true. Learning about the theory changed my thinking.
Unfortunately many people on both sides of the belief fence tend to be adversarial and confrontational. There's really no need in that.

I totally understand, I have been on both sides of this. There is a desire for mental peace that can only be reached a couple different ways.....pick your poison
