"After we make a questionable choice, we often think up—or make up—new reasons to believe it was right after all. The process is called rationalization; and although it seems pointless and silly, it does sometimes help us feel better about ourselves.
Now, researchers have found that monkeys do it, too. That raises the possibility that the process is evolutionarily much older, and perhaps more automatic, than was previously believed, according to the scientists."
Hey my belief that all the senses we have is found in all the other beings going down to single celled ones, and we are so stupid we cannot understand them. Of course science have to prove it to believe it. I am not a scientists hmmm...
