I find it really concerning when people are adamantly choosing one point before understanding the bigger picture. However,it's justified because that's the conclusion they ended up understanding or coming to.
We tend to have this very black and white reasoning as I'd like to think we're conditioned to be that way. For example, at schools we're taught about the good vs evil but rarely asked to question something in the middle. So, it's really ingrained in our education that only if we go to some form of higher learning, we'll learn about the gray side of it all.
