This is the way the foundation of the mind works: it chooses one perspective and tends to negate others.… Intellect’s capacity for making judgments is a great gift, but when ego co-opts intellect to reinforce its own value, it can be profoundly damaging to relatedness – Anne Hillman Awakening the Energies of Love p102.

Also I was just wondering the last time you admitted that someone was probably less wrong than you are about a philosophical belief?

Is this quote from Sam Harris in Waking Up p215n anti-naturalistic?

The idea that consciousness is identical to (or emerged from) a certain class of unconscious physical events seems impossible to properly conceive – which is to say that we can think that we are thinking it, but we are probably mistaken. We can say the right words: “Consciousness emerges from unconscious information processing.” We can also say “Some squares are as round as circles” and 2 + 2 equals 7.” But are we really thinking these things all the way through? I don’t think so.
