    I’m sorry for the delay in replying. The book is incredibly eye-opening but it’s one I will have to read more than once. My struggle is not just what I’ve been taught in the past but also how little I looked for myself. It’s shocking how much I have to Google while reading it.

      We all go through it, even if it’s just learning terms we’re unfamiliar with. Your other points resonate with me as well. It can take a lot of effort to work through (because there’s so much to read!), but I’ve also found it’s been very rewarding.

      Thank you for taking the time to read it. Most people we encounter don’t even bother to engage with anything that opposes their established worldview. It’s not trivial and requires an inquisitive mind. Many people don’t care enough to even try.
