Confirmation Bias

Here’s the trouble with dogmatism. Dogmatic skeptics put on a super-skeptical filter whenever they’re confronted with God. They’re super-gullible when examining anything anti-Bible or anti-Christ. They’ll accept just about anything.

So they present a question, but they already know they won’t accept any answer. Their Skeptometer is set on high.

“NO! That makes no sense to me.”

That’s their reaction no matter the answer. If necessary, they change the subject, resort to personal attacks, or try other fallacies. They say something like this:

“Just convince me. Oh! Surprise! You couldn’t convince me. That confirms my bias. It makes my worldview, my fake reality seem more real. My fake reality seems more real to me than real reality. It makes my imaginary world seem more genuine.”

So they walk into even greater darkness and have less ability to tell the difference between reality and make-believe, truth and error, or good and evil.
