Hugs, Sue, another experiencer Very true that people will go to extreme ends to refute things they find impossible or that don't fit into their 'reality tunnel', but also very true that people are just as likely to cling to a personal belief that something DOES exist, even in the face of evidence against it, especially if said belief is long held. Extreme belief in the _existence_ of something, is in many ways, quite simply, the same as belief that something does _not_ exist.
