I would guess that it's more the case of people here having more flexible priors. I find that I'm generally less certain of the truth of my beliefs than most people. By my estimation, most people are damn sure of things that they have no way of knowing anything about. I'm probably a defense attorney's wet dream, because I always have doubt.
Sam Harris, in his recent article called The Fireplace Delusion, tries to make you feel what it's like to react to a cached belief being irreparably destroyed. Just incase you forgot what your apostasy (if you had one, of course) was like in its early stages.
What are some of the Fireplace Delusions you've come across in your days?
