What do you hope to accomplish in this argument? Unless your mother's far beliefs cause her to take near actions which make local lives unpleasant, I suggest that fixing her stated beliefs about reality is not a high priority. It's especially not a priority for you; your interactions with your mother cannot help but be coloured by prestige.
People like arguing?
Yep. But also because disagreement is an itch I have the urge to scratch. I don't like contradiction, because it means someone is wrong, and that's bad. Or at least that's how I tend to feel.
