The philosopher, Peter Kreeft once made a distinction between arguments which are objectively strong by the rules of logic and evidence, and those which are subjectively strong because they convince those immersed in ignorance, prejudice or passion. Those who William James called tough-minded will always bow to truth and logic. The tender-minded will believe what they want to believe based on prejudice, sentiment and ignorance. - SANUSI LAMIDO SANUSI (2002)
