>Don't people choose convenient fictions? Not people worth knowing, IMHO, no.

That's a convenient fiction to believe, but I haven't found it to be true in anybody.

That would be an opinion of mine, not a belief, that people worth knowing try not to hold on to fictions.

Whether they end up doing so is less important, they choose not to whenever the choice is apparent.

Not so sure about those "people worth knowing".

I've known wonderful artists and creative persons who absolutely could not give a flying duck for the "reality".

Was the person here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0319061/ worth knowing?

A fun story, but not making pretensions to objective reality, which creationism certainly does.
