I very rarely immediately accept and believe 'things' that pop out of the tv or other commercial sources,
that tell us 'things' as though it is fact.
that is where common sense immediately steps in, and could settle the matter right now, or not.
I store many things in the back of my mind, till I gather more evidence/information.
Far too much b.s. and just incorrect information is thrown at us, as the news sources are in too
much of a hurry trying to beat each other to news,and is often full of errors.
I also don't disbelieve everything, like a terminal skeptic who thinks 'all' are lying and trying
to deceive us.
Life experiences in this world can keep us balanced, and, believing something that is a lie, isn't
the problem of the believer, it is the problem of the lier, and what goes round comes round, and
in time we know one way or the other.
Unless someone tells us our gas tank is full in the plane we are about to fly, and it isn't. It is
wise to check things for oneself. lol
