If you _want_ to believe something, it becomes easy to find reasons to justify that belief, even when there is evidence to the contrary that should make it a cut-and-dried issue.

We tend to believe things because we want to believe them.

Some people only _want_ to believe things because there is evidence or proof.

But you can _want_ to believe things for all sorts of reasons.

Nobody is immune to this bias.

Pretend for a moment, you are sometimes wrong. It is a helpful exercise.
