Kathryn Schulz: We treat people terribly to maintain the notion we are "right"

[yoyohooyo]

Kathryn ant bad, if only she could shut up for about 15 minutes.

[enlightenoneself]

Right or wrong is very subjective , one must come to realize everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Having the idea that everyone is ignorant or evil because they do not think the way you do is sad but also funny

[opptynox]

This is essentially stolen from the anthropological work of Ernest Becker, and the psychological studies done subsequently by Sheldon Solomon. Kathryn... new material please.

[jazzdakini]

@opptynox seriously?! nothing is new under the sun and to make significant and important information available in a contemporary fashion takes nothing from the people claiming to be the originators and benefits those who may be hearing such ideas for the first time...... relax.....let it go......
