I love saying crazy things that I can support, and I thrive on the attention given to the iconoclast, so I find it impossible to answer this.
The only beliefs that I wouldn’t feel comfortable saying here are beliefs that I want to be true, want to argue for, but I know would get shredded. This is one reason I try to hang out with smart, argumentative people—so that my concern about being shredded in an argument forces me to more carefully evaluate my beliefs. (With less intelligent people, I could say false things and still win arguments).
This is great. I haven’t waded my way through the whole EvoPsy debate (yet), and then there’s global warming, several flavors of natural selection argument, and who knows what else.
Mind if I vent some arguments with you?
