I wonder if this political model of information works for our discussions at Occam's with the fundamentalist Christians. Within that group, the more we argue, the more adamant the fundamentalist are about the correctness misinformation (on evolution, on global warming, on the age of the earth, etc.). Perhaps we need to turn down the emotions to get the correct information accepted. There definitely is a strong emotional attachment to their religious beliefs.
