Great article!

But I wonder whether propaganda controls us or we simply pick and choose the propaganda that reinforces our beliefs.

In other words, does propaganda define our beliefs or do our beliefs determine which propaganda we listen to and which we ignore.

And if it’s the latter, than the 64k question is where do our beliefs come from? What determines what we believe?

It is not an either or situation. both are valid.

It is complex. Sometimes it is a little thing and a certain time. Imprinting (Gods design for good) is part of the problem. The homosexual perverts want to get to the kids at the imprintable time.

You don’t buy anything from one advertisement. maybe after the 1,000 time, you might think Dr Pepper is a good idea.

Humans are complex, there are no simple answers. Each and every one of us is unique.

Some would argue we have no free will. We cannot make a decision completely independent of outside influences.

Now, complex questions like yours lead to headaches and answers like GOD. I have learned from an outside influence that the answer to every question eventually leads to God.
