Why Common Sense Isn't So Common
Manage episode 515548953 series 2705063
We like to think of ourselves as rational.
We believe in equality, respect, and decency. And we assume that any reasonable person would agree with us.
That’s what makes it so frustrating when someone doesn’t, especially when they follow someone like Andrew Tate.
We shake our heads.
We roll our eyes.
We say, “How could anyone believe that?!”
But here’s a hard truth:
The people who follow him— they’re not crazy.
They’re just programmed differently.
In this week’s Spiritual Perspective, we explore what’s really behind our most intense reactions—especially when someone sees the world completely differently.
And why the people we’re quickest to judge might actually make more sense than we think.
I think this one’s going to surprise you.
