About This Quote
Some beliefs are so strongly held that some believers are ready to lose their heads rather than the belief they carry therein. That is what happens when you hold a belief so strongly that you cannot allow for it to be challenged. For example, a Christian who believes in the literal truth of the Bible and that all non-Christians will go to hell. The belief is that they will go to hell is such a strong one that these people will not listen to reason and will not listen to criticism of their beliefs, even if it comes from someone who is more knowledgeable than themselves.
