You can't change someones mind.

They have to do it themselves.

If it's a foundational belief, it's really hard to change.

It taps into our sense of belonging, psychological security and survival.

It's a fundamental cocktail.

'The willingness and ability to revise one's worldview in response to new evidence or experiences are key aspects of personal growth, intellectual development, and openness to learning.'

Thanks for trying though, but these guys won't budge.

Plus won't provide any facts or insight to change our minds.

That ends the discussion.
