9. Yes indeed. Some people choose happy LIES over unpleasant TRUTHS.
It's not a reasoned choice, it's an EMOTIONAL one.

That's why no amount of logic or fact will affect
their opinion- their opinion has already SIDESTEPPED
the very idea of "logic and facts".

It doesn't matter how obviously incorrect their positions are,
because REALITY is not a factor in their decision-making
process to begin with.
They choose to believe whatever makes them FEEL good,
and that's all there is to it.
