I don't believe in my reality, I accept actual reality because there is evidence of it.
If some one else expects me to believe something without evidence simply because they have a warm fuzzy feeling about it or because their imaginary friend insists they believe it or else he is going to burn them forever, then we are going to have a problem.

Which ‘people’ do you mean specifically?

Everyone is right in their own eyes, though we know they're mistaken!

Egocentrism. Lack of empathy. Ignorance. I can't accept these people in my life anymore.

Because we are fundamentally subjective beings, not objective beings.

I think it’s our nature to behave that way. Fortunately it’s also our nature to be able to construct counterbalances to our nature, but it is usually done only on a voluntary basis, and not many volunteer. 🙂
