Fact, Fiction and Friends

Facts are often shared beliefs, but distinguishing them from personal opinions is crucial. Shared truths serve as proxies for objective truth. Scientists’ independent and consistent observations can approach objective truth.

 

However, ensuring science remains unbiased is challenging.  Volume does not dictate truth; objective truth should prevail over subjective or shared beliefs. Sharing beliefs build bridges towards truth and helps combat bias.

Could unresolved past events aka Memories represent a form of Spiritual Clutter which can affect your perception of current experiences?

Our mind is constantly evaluating our environment for threats to our existence and wellbeing. When we perceive a threat, we store all the related data of that moment, including contextual information. Our threat detection system is designed to save our life, so it’s very fast and very imprecise (it needs to be). In evaluating whatever we’re experiencing today, it only takes one small piece of data to look vaguely familiar to a previous negative experience for the whole negative emotion and unhelpful biological cascade to be triggered.
