Five Logical Fallacies That Make You Wrong More Than You Think

I don't always want to impress my thoughts unto others, I'd just prefer others to think for themselves and truly understand both/all sides of an argument/view better. That's why I'm not going to go into details of this article that I just read. It doesn't matter what the source is, just that it presents readers with another perspective.

Here are 5 Logical Fallacies That Make You Wrong More Than You Think:
1. We're Not Programmed to Seek "Truth," We're Programmed to "Win"
2. Our Brains Don't Understand Probability
3. We Think Everyone's Out to Get Us
4. We're Hard-Wired to Have a Double Standard
5. Facts Don't Change Our Minds

Maybe, maybe not. But, it is a good read.

Define Touch, Define Contact

Via Google and other dictionaries and sources...

Touch (n): An act of bringing a part of one's body, typically one's hand, into contact with someone or something. (v) Come so close to (an object) as to be or come into contact with it.

Contact (n): The state or condition of physical touching.

Seem circular enough?

Now, I will try to present another definition of touch and contact.
 - The state where objects have overlapping electron probability clouds.
     -  This definition can be refined over time, to include at "90%" probability maybe (definitely not at 100%).

Another Idea: Words are only defined for the 99% and will never include the truly technically correct definitions. ...Assuming present paradigm.
