I've noticed on Yahoo Answers people's opinions drastically effect the way they interpret stats/facts. You can ask the same question in two different sections, and people will respond to the facts purely based on their own personal beliefs. Almost ignoring the facts and stats completely, or justifying them away somehow. Do you try to prevent your opinions from effecting the way you analys information? Thanks for answering!
Some examples - If you ask about aids statistics in the g*y and L*****n section, everyone will say that it's a lie, and the government hates g**s. If you ask about how old the planet is in the religion section, people will tell you science is trying to kill God, and that it's all a farce. Try asking about the corrolation between college graduates more often than not being Liberal in the government section and see what happens. Just examples. None of these topics are reflections of my opinion. Thanks for answering!
