Eupraxsophy

Secular humanist, freethinker, progressive, and bibliophile. I love living life, learning things, and meeting people.

Jon Stewart is amazing. 

This goes along with my view that conservatives see the world more concretely, while liberals see it more abstractly. Conservatives generally need to experience things directly (or possibly indirectly, but through a close family member or friend.) Liberals can imagine what would or could happen if a policy is carried out without having directly experienced it, by using prior knowledge and logic.

Indeed, psychological studies bear this out: conservatives are more “experiential” whereas liberals are “analytical.” It’s all about how each side views the world and what sort of knowledge they value. Each perspective is vital, but relying too much on or the other can be dangerous.
