Some people are gullible and hang on people's every word. I don't believe everything that people say. Now, that doesn't mean that if you tell me the sky is blue I'll argue with you, but when it comes to rumors or people bragging, I tend to brush it off and not believe them. If there's enough evidence, then yeah, I'll believe it. But if there isn't any I assume it's a lie. So do you tend to believe everything that people tell you?

No I do not. I'm not very guillible I don't think. Some people can get me though but for the most part it's not easy to tell me something that is false and have me believe it. If someone tells me something that I think may be true I usually check out some resources first before I even begin to consider the possibility. My mother is very guillble though and I'm always telling her things aren't true that she's told.

With all the scams and cheats and well-publicized crooks, I find it difficult to accept anything at face value. I absolutely hat that, but it is true. I want to trust and to hope and to think that everyone wants only what's best!

not always.
The things you hear may not true , the things you see may not true.lol
in drawing a tiger , you can draw its skin but not its bones.
in knowing a man , you can know his face but not his heart.
so, just as you say , I believe those have enough evidences.
happy mylotting.

i think that to most, its just so easy to just do this. specially if the source is someone you trust. but i've always thought of myself as someone who practices critical thinking. i analyze everything that i hear or read even before actually considering that it could be true. this normally takes me longer to react. but i'd rather be safe than be easily fooled.
