Congrats on wanting a better understanding of things rather than reading information as gospel. Keep an open, but skeptical, mind and you'll learn a lot.

Thanks. I am that and I learned alot with that mindset.

But to be honest, it's really tiring and unnerving sometimes to keep that kind of mindset. I just wish I could think like a pure simpleton. Would make my life much easier. It also throws you under fire alot of the times too. Got into a lot of arguments and fights with it.

How does it treat you?
