Dead men don’t bleed

True story. A doctor in a psychiatric ward has a patient who insists he is dead. Nothing the doctor can do will convince him he is still alive. Finally the doctor comes up with an idea. He asks the man, "Dead men don't bleed, right?" The man says, "You're right, you don't bleed after you die."

The doctor then pricks his own thumb and then the guy's thumb. The patient looks at his thumb and says, "I see that I was wrong. Dead men DO bleed."

You can't logically convince anyone of anything if they are psychologically invested in their point of view.

That is why I have stopped debating on CC. I will only debate with people if both their mind and my mind is open to the truth. It isn't right to argue with someone in hopes that they will change their mind, if you are not willing yourself, as long as the truth points to you being wrong.

what if someone is theologically invested in their POV? is that the same thing?

honest question.

also, i come here about twice a month, so if you're not feeling particularly patient, i won't take offense if you choose not to answer.

sorry, Bill, i didn't mean arguing is ever a good idea, i'm just truly wondering if psychologically and theologically are the same thing.

not the brightest bulb in the box. ;)
