The Brain doesn't know the difference between what it sees and what it remembers with all its creative shading.
I recognize this when I have a strong conviction about something I learned in college; though, I can't remember a single fact to back up my position. The thing is, I can't re-evaluate my belief based on what I've learned in the last 18 years becasue I no longer remember the facts. I just sense my final judgement on it. The point is, watch your convictions, your righteous feelings, that you can't quite articulate. They may no longer be true for you. Time has run away with the facts, and left you holding the baggage of a "could-be" outdated perception.
