We all like to think that we're the normal ones and everyone else is crazy. I argue that's not the case. I think all of us believe in something that other people would label as insane.
For instance, last Friday I had a meeting at work. My co-workers and I had some time off and our conversation took a weird turn when we started talking about conspiracy theories. My friend said she believes in the Illuminati and that they really do control the entertainment industry. We all started talking about things we believed in. I said I believed in aliens. And actually I do believe in them, and they scare me. Everyone started to laugh. I mean, it is pretty humorous, but how many people believe in Big Foot or the Loch Ness Monster.
Anyway, this is kind of random, but really, if you think about your beliefs they're not as sane as you may think.
I agree! I think that weird beilfs are what contribute to our culture and society! If we didn't have people believing in what they believe in, then what we have to believe in? It's what makes the world go around. It's what makes people become passionate and fight for what they think is right and for what they believe in :)
