But what makes each one of us different i.e why do few believe and few dont? Arent we all humans and same!!

[jimwalton]

There's no arguing that we're all humans, but other than genetic and biological similarities, we are far from the same. Each one of us is unique, and I'm sure you know that. Our differences make us think and act differently, to perceive and process differently, and even to respond differently to the same data. Certain people see the data about Hunter's Biden's laptop and say, "The Bidens are corrupt!" Others see the exact same data and say, "The accusers are all liars!"

We know that humans have a tendency to see what we want to see and believe what we want to believe. We make decisions more by viscera than by logic. We tend to cover or deny uncomfortable truths or truths that go against what we have already decided. These are our human tendencies, but we all play them out differently.

Some watch Donald Trump create a peace treaty between Israel and 3 Mid-Eastern countries and say, "Wow! That's a notable accomplishment!" Others see the exact same thing and say, "This means nothing. No Mid-East treaty has ever made a difference. And if you want to consider giving DJT the Nobel Peace Prize, we need to shut down the Nobel Peace Prize."

So some people see the hand of God and accept it; some see the hand of God and reject it. That's why some believe and some don't. We make our choices based on experiences, prejudices, assumptions, perceptions, benefits, risk, and fear.
