People who blow themselves to find eternal pleasure with dozens of virgins, people who live convinced humans emerged spontaneously in a botanical garden, people who sacrifice animals to placate the omnipotent to make their lives better and cognitive dissonance reaches its pinnacle when these three kinds laugh at each others ignorance.
Being pro or anti globalization is normal and will be a ongoing debate. Being against it, when happily making a his or her living (or a family member), working for a foreign corporation makes even the dissonance hang its head in shame for not reaching those heights of dissonance.
Being against science since it stands against their beliefs but popping handful of pills which is a product of science, before bedtime to delay their journey to the very place they believe they were born to reach. It's "dual" cognitive dissonance in process everyday.
The paradox of cognitive dissonance is more one embraces it, more unconscious the dissonance becomes and more happy the creature becomes. I hope cognitive dissonance is Somatic not Germline .
