Divided They Fall - New York Times

Divided They Fall - New York Times
Interesting followup point fro Kristof, when he pusbished oh the evnagelicals aren't so bad after all, and we should give them some credit on world poverty issues, the liberal backlash was from my perspective extremely harsh. The cognitive experiments he alludes to are interesting in that in it seems to affirm our systematic cognitive biases. We tend very much to tune out and dismiss that which doesn't conform to our own belief systems
