>>18300286>kids will tend to accept things for truth which ought not be accepted, and they reject things as false which ought to be accepted.That's just the matter of opinion.Or are you talking about things like death and life, or other facts or lies of life that come with age?
> Their brains are biologically still too underdeveloped to think think logicallySo when are they ready to think properly? 25? 15? 10?
> some people believe they have found THE truth.It's called gnosis, well when the 'truth' is esoteric that is.
>That their opinions are not just opinions, but objective facts, and those who disagree do not just disagree, they are wrong. Sounds pretty human to me, feelings do play a large role in what people think and do. I've met 40yo people that act like kids, but their brains are pretty developed by then.
> So each new idea that presents itself can be approached like a puzzle: little by little accepting or rejecting pieces of it over time.That's just a benefit of those who can take their time thinking about stuff. And believing that every and any idea can be improved only causes suffering and feelings of uncertainty. It's much more comforting to just accept one truth and go with it. Constant i guess evolution is a means to no end.
>what word would you use? what is the highest attainable good?I have no idea, but at the current state of things the feeling of fulfilment is the goal. It can be both peaceful and chaotic. But as i said, that's one possible goal, i don't think it's universal. If anything, someone that accepts simple or maybe simplified truths can find contentment much easier. Like believing that nothing can make things better makes the next meal something very enjoyable, even if that's not the objective truth. Things can go either way, it's the matter of believe too, but it's also the question of why, why go beyond the initial meaning?
Of course that above is just another opinion.
I will look into your link tho it i will take a while.
