lolita, you may not have realised, that despite the semi-humourous tone of some of the preceeding posts, a very good counter-point was raised which you did not address.
The point is that "knowing something in your heart" cannot be equated with knowledge.
As an example, a klansman "knows in his heart" that black people are inferior to good decent white folk. Does it make it so?
Hitler "knew deep down in his heart" that Jews were not worthy of existence. Does it make it so?
The 9-11 terrorists had the "truth in their hearts" that America and everything it stood for was evil, and they were acting righteously by what they did.
The list goes on and on and on....
So you either accept all of these conclusions (Blacks are inferior, Jews deserve to die, America is evil, etc) or you have to reconsider your methods of reasoning which brought us to these same conclusions.
