M. Scott Peck Quotes

What Happens When One Has Striven Long And Hard To Develop A Working View Of The World, A Seemingly Useful, Workable Map, And Then Is Confronted With New Information Suggesting That The View Is Wrong And The Map Needs To Be Largely Redrawn? The Painful Effort Required Seems Frightening, Almost Overwhelming. What We Do More Often Than Not, And Usually Unconsciously, Is To Ignore The New Information. Often This Act Of Ignoring Is Much More Than Passive. We May Denounce The New Information As False, Dangerous, Heretical, The Work Of The Devil. We May Actually Crusade Against It, And Even Attempt To Manipulate The World So As To Make It Conform To Our View Of Reality. Rather Than Try To Change The Map, An Individual May Try To Destroy The New Reality.
