If two ideas are present then one can not reject the
validity of an another idea just because they have a set belief
that only one idea can be present. This can be proven with the
interpretation of scripture.[1 ~David Livermore PhD, Customs of
the World] The test of first-rate intelligence is the ability
to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time and still
retain the ability to function. ~ F.Scott Fitzgerald. (author
of the Great Gatsby) The general belief is that even if two
messages contrast they can still both be held side by side,
analysed and believed to be the intended message by the same
mind. This is what it is to be human, for X to equal both true
and false at once without loss of sanity. The message changes
and is dynamic. This proves that the message changes depending
on cultural, disposition, political stance, and beliefs.
