It seems like...a lot of the time...we consistently look for evidence to support what we already believe, and we consistently filter out anything to the contrary.
Exactly,and it works both ways.
There's a well known PHD that has fossils of dinosaur prints right alongside human prints but anyone who doesn't believe that possible will simply dismiss it as a hoax or fake, or try to find some way it could exist and still support their position.
I could explain bibically how the earth could be billions of years old and how man could be older than 6000 years and the Genesis account still be true,but an atheist won't even consider it because it doesn't fit his belief.
