IMHO in-group contrarians: - Someone how didn't get that all truth-seeking is a facade (no matter if it is a Catholic, feminist, communist, libertarian, etc group). So they don't get that they should pretend to search for truth while accepting the dogma (think about many religious scholars: often it is fine, or even encouraged to ask questions and have doubts, as long as you arrive at the "correct" answer). - People who take the gamble (consciously or not) - to be the new leader or a cast-out. Again, it seems that in religion almost every single person considered a key figure falls into this category (some didn't succeed so ended up as heretics, or we don't even remember their name). Think: Moses, Jesus, Martin Luther. From a tribalistic standpoint, it makes sense to have at the same time: - A cohesive belief, so it is a clear distinction for who is in and who is out. - Some route to explore other ideas. If the tribe accepts it, good. If considered it wrong, then it is much easier to banish or execute a few people, than counteract to a large fraction of the population which are slightly heretical.
