I'm all about usefullness... I just hadn't given it a title. I believe that what people believe about the afterlife, for example, is exactly what is right and what will happen for them. I don't need a comforting thought, though. Dead is dead.
I tend to abosorb the information and discard what I don't feel is helpful or in line with my current beliefs. It's like those damn extra puzzle pieces that are left in the box after the whole image is complete. You know they came from somwhere, but if they don't fit, get rid of them. At least that's how I approach a lot of it. Then again, I usually keep the extra pieces and try to turn them into something else, so maybe that's not a good analogy. I typically acknowledge the information and store it somewhere, because the likelihood of running across it again is rather high in some cases and I need to know how to argue my point.
