Idola Specus, the fallacy of inner bias, continued
<quote from Real Faith & Reason, vol 2>
Using the discoveries of Sir Francis Bacon, let’s shed light on a few of the many ways thinkers lose touch with reality and how those ways work together to create extremely deceptive illusions. Sir Francis Bacon categorized all fallacies under four headings: idola tribus, idola theatri, idola fori, and idola specus. We know of only one way to avoid losing touch with reality, and this way is focusing on Jesus Christ, the Truth, the Reality.

<quote from Real Faith & Reason, vol 2>
Those who follow their own inner biases stop their own progress. Their own minds, not other people’s minds, cause their downfall. They become vain in their imaginations, and their foolish hearts darken, so God gives them over to impurity through the desires of their own hearts, and then they do impure things. (Romans 1:24) God gives them over to the disorder and torment of their own minds. (Romans 1:26a) When people resist God, God allows them to be deceived and enslaved by their own reprobate minds. (Romans 1:28)
