Idola Specus Fallacy

<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.

Idola Specus Fallacy
 
The Fallacy of Inner Bias
 
God says that those who reject Christ love darkness and hate light. (John 3:19) They’re biased toward darkness and biased against the light, and bias causes both resistance to truth and desire for error. The idola specus fallacy resists truth because of inner bias, and it confuses reality and make-believe, causing resistance to truth and love for error.
