Know and not believe

"They know that God's law says that people who live in this way deserve death. Yet, not only do they continue to do these very things, but they even approve of others who do them."

(Romans 1.32 GNB)

"Everybody knows they’re going to die, but nobody believes it. If we did, we would do things differently."

~ Morrie Schwartz (Tuesdays with Morrie, Mitch Albom)

The essence of life rests on the personal belief of death. Perspective leads to thoughts and actions consistent with the belief.

And belief is deeply personal - yelling at someone does not change her / his belief.
