RfRx - Why Facts Don’t Change Minds, featuring Seth Andrews

We present solid data. They go blank, get angry, or walk out. Why isn't evidence breaking through belief barriers? This week on RfRx, Seth Andrews shares his perspective on "Identity Belief" and how to perhaps carve the crack that lets in some light. If bullet points aren't working...what does?

Hosted by Helen Green, RfR Ambassador, and Rob Palmer, RfR Resource Director

Recorded on November 11, 2024

The primary focus of Recovering from Religion (RfR) is to offer hope, healing, and support to those struggling with issues of doubt and non-belief. This transitional period is an ongoing process that can result in a range of emotions, as well as a ripple effect of consequences throughout an individual’s life. We are here to help each other through this journey.
