People can find any belief system, no matter how unfounded in reality, personally beneficial, look at Scientology. Doesn't mean it's based on anything coherent

People can find any belief system, no matter how unfounded in reality, personally beneficial, look at Scientology.
Doesn't mean it's based on anything coherent or real.

- aarpmcgee 7y agoWhen the word "real" is used as it is here, I sense that it often has nothing to do with reality, and more to do with some kind of arbitrary consensus-reality-concept, which may or may not have anything to do with reality. This is useful insofar as it allows me personally to occasionally "fiddle with the knobs" on my own perspective, which is easier to do when I don't actually believe in it.
