Re: Is It Possible?
No. Not if you re going to be intellectually honest with yourself and others

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

Re: Beliefs Don't Explode...
It's not going to cause a brain explosion; and there is nothing in it at all about 'honesty' since being inconsistent is all a [necessary] part of the human experience.
I think this falls into the honesty to oneself that I mentioned. Its cool if you feel honesty to oneself isn't important, but it is to me.
