If I had time to go in search of it, I’m sure there must be an interesting quote from Shakespeare on the dangers of certitude. Once I’ve locked reality to meet my assumptions, I’m no longer able to admit any wider possible aspect within reality that challenge those assumptions, and in effect, the power of my bias begins to work unconsciously. The bias becomes a lens whereby each and every piece of incoming data must meet the demands of given prejudice.
I’m saddened by the overt racism that is leaking from so many quarters in these days of suffering in Haiti. Do you see what I see?
A great post on this over at Cultural Mythology…
