The existence of everything has to be explained. The existence of my creator being does not have to be explained.
Apart from compartmentalization, are there any other more compelling explanations for how a human brain can be so self contradictory and unaware of same?
I understand natural selection, is this the simplest and most convincing explanation? I guess I'm asking an intellectual question, maybe such a brain simply lacks the neural connections to make such a contradiction obvious. That's not really so mysterious. And if the behavior has been selected for over generations it will be there like any other behavior. Maybe we can call it a passive behavior.
It's probably just this simple but thought to see what others think. It's still a behavior that fascinates me.
