I agree with you completely here. Although I too am not sure about contradictions. I think I was going for the word coherence here.

Religion is just contradictions on steroids…

This is so true. I mean, for something which is holy, our fingerprints are all over it and it shows.

she's good though! I don't know about her education but after all this, I am sure it doesn't matter. Why do you say barely literate, I don't think I found anything wrong with the books

Yuval Noah Harari covers this more eloquently in his book Sapiens.

time to read it again I think. It is a wonderful book, but I dont remember reading about this particular topic in enough detail. Thank you for your comment

Beautiful explanation. I just learned something else. Our brain can't learn and listen to everything, so if you listen to stories from the point of view of a certain ideology or person, the more you feel justified to defend that person as long as that person is within rational limits of actions.

You get what I am trying to say, I think this is a factor in why we are so polarized today. We are empathizing with and listening to people who have a particular bent of ideology more and more and since our brains don't really like contradictions, the more we listen to one kind of stories, we can't listen to the other kind of stories, what do you think?
