Belief is YOUR evaluation of YOUR personal set of conditioned data (INTRA-SUBJECTIVE). > So then, how is this... YOU were largely programmed (INCULCATED) to believe most of what you think that you believe (BASE PROGRAMMING, FIRMWARE). Once YOU have been formatively programmed (INCULCATED, BIOS FLASHED) it becomes very difficult to properly re-programme (FIRMWARE UPDATE). It's very difficult to change your mind (RE-PROGRAM, DE-PROGRAM). > ...not subject to your first point? Do we share a personal set of conditioned data? We share basic hardware (biological, instinctual) similarities and basic firmware (primary childhood experience) similarities. This is evidenced by our ability to communicate. These (inter-subjective) similarities are prerequisite to our intellectual interaction.
