Fair enough.
Personally I reject that premise, though in some contexts I endorse behaving as though it were true for pragmatic social reasons. But I have no problem with you continuing to believe it if that makes you feel good... it seems like a relatively harmless form of self-gratification, and it probably won't grow hair on your utility function.
