Everyone is right in their own world
Everyone is right in their own world. Think about it. If you said something and another person debate on the topic. In their worldview and perception, both are right. The difficult part is, that it's not easy to change someone's perception. They just ignore you and make baseless questions and theories to prove their beliefs. In the end, both are right in their own world. If you want to believe someone's perception the person has to be a perceiver and get ready to think logically and take decision-based on evidences not on theories.
When some people said earth is flat. Everyone believes it because no one sees the blue thing from the outside. So people tend to believe what they see and they see flat roads not round. But it changed and people started to believe the earth is a circle (orange shaped) rather than flat based on evidence by Pythagoras sometime around 500 B.C.
Taking into personal account people get hurt when their perception is wrong. They get anxious, angry, and mad. That is obvious because when you said someone is wrong he might accept it and move on but when you said to a bunch of people they won't accept it. They will differ. Think about when you get the border of someone's perception.
