More Knowledge
==More Knowledge==
In a research which I can not locate, it was found that radicals has more knowledge on the subject then modrate people. This with the assumption that we tend to defend our worldview<ref>Haidt, J. (2012). The Righteous Mind: Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion [Kindle Edition] (p. 530). Penguin. Retrieved from http://www.amazon.com/The-Righteous-Mind-Politics-ebook/dp/B0076O2VMI/ref=tmm_kin_title_0</ref>,may imply that radicals use knowledge and auxilury thoeries to to defend their views. This may also be the results of radicals being more afraid, and so use rationalization to make the world more explainable and safe.
What may be the implication of the above theory (if it is true)?
