This sounds very much like religion - I'd be interested in hearing about a solid non-religious example.
Let's avoid object level examples until we resolve how to distinguish this dishonest rhetorical move from honest updates on the low validity of prior arguments now abandoned. Otherwise, we get bogged down in mindkiller without any general insight into how to be more rational.
But aren't we all agreed the specific examples are super-helpful for understanding a general phenomenon?
