The practice or act of intentional and blatant avoidance, disregard or disagreement with facts, empirical evidence and well-founded arguments because they oppose or contradict your own existing personal beliefs.

This practice is most commonly found in the political or religious ideologies of "conservative" Americans.

Many times it is practiced due to laziness--people not wanting to have to do the work to rethink their opinions, the fear of the unknown, the fear of being wrong, or sometimes simply close-mindedness.
Willful ignorance?

I know how filthy you people are.

People like this put their need for maintaining their prejudice above the safety and wellbeing of children.

The convolutions, mental distortions, denial, and downright lies some of these people will use to to maintain their prejudice is truly disturbing.

I take at least two showers a day, brush my teeth two or three times a day, do the dished after every meal, I only wear clean clothing, I vacuum every two days, my house is clean, even my mind is clean as I don't fill it with illogical and ignorant ideas.

Children don't need to be exposed to your ways.

It's just so disturbing that you just can't stop thinking about it and writing about it on the Internet, can you?

Why?

Two of my Christian brothers are gay - I wish that they would understand their sin as being true - but I think that only myself can reach them. These people are leaders in the church - which I have just become after a long layoff.

Homosexuality is a choice - and a sin

. "God so loved the world that he gave His only Son, so that the world may not be condemned, but have eternal life,".

- - John 3:16.

You raise your kids your way - and I'll raise my kids my way. And screw Obama's evolution on gay marriage.
