Ahh, okay. Rather narrow definition. I was thinking more along thoughts associated with fear. Scare people with concept they don't very well understand, offer hope, and over time as they think about one and get scared or think of the other and get comfortable, they develop conditioned associations of the form A=bad, B=good, that can not be removed with logical arguments any more than you can argue a conditioned blink reflex out of someone.
