No, I mean the psychological phenomenon of confirmation bias, which is regarding information more favorably if it confirms your existing beliefs. Just because you believe in Satan, and the evil that he promotes, does not mean that this girls’ story should become any more believable to you than it was before you read that part. Her story is full of holes, so you should be able to see she is just a liar, whether or not her lies dovetail with some of your own beliefs.

You MUST be an attorney: king of the picking of nits.

HOW do you know her story is "full of holes"?? Are you a mind reader or were you there to know the FULL story? She COULDN'T be obfuscating the truth at all? OF COURSE NOT.
How do YOU the entire truth so you can compare the tales?

I neither know nor care how her truth dovetails with mine but I was taught about the Father of all evil. Maybe you just don't believe in evil or its personification.
Maybe, for you, all good and evil is a personal point of view.

Judge Me Not Ye Saints
For My History May Be Tainted
But I’m Sober Enough To Know Blood When I See It
I’ve Borne My Share Of Stones
Most Of Them Easily Thrown
But Who’s To Deny
Your Water-Shed Side
Leading Me Home?

CHORUS:
What Am I Supposed To Do About It Now?
Past Regrets And Long Laments, They Find Me Somehow
O, What Am I Supposed To Do About It Now?
What Have I To Do But Fall Down?

To Spy From Far Away
May Seem That I’m One To Betray
But O, How I Try
The Spirit To Guide
The Promise You Made

CHORUS

Hold Me Up
Never Let Me Go
Love Me When I Am Broken
And Speak To Me

“You MUST be an attorney”

Nope, just looking at things critically, which is always advisable, whether you’re an attorney or not.

“HOW do you know her story is “full of holes”?? HOW do you know her story is “full of holes”??”

It’s quite simple to draw that conclusion from the story she has spun. I’ve outlined the most obvious flaw in her story in post #15. One doesn’t need to be a mind reader or have inside knowledge to draw these conclusions.

“She COULDN’T be obfuscating the truth at all? OF COURSE NOT.
How do YOU the entire truth so you can compare the tales?”

She’s obviously obfuscating the truth, because her story is almost entirely a lie. At least the parts about her being a multiple murderer, and belonging to a cult of murderers. That is fiction, and it is apparent from the discrepancy between her stories and her known actions.

“I neither know nor care how her truth dovetails with mine but I was taught about the Father of all evil. Maybe you just don’t believe in evil or its personification. “

No, I most certainly do believe in evil, and Satan. The difference between you and I is that, just because someone weaves Satan into their implausible story does not mean I will give their story any more credence than it deserves on its merits.
