Leonidas on Religion (Pt. VI) - Fear of religion

It's my as yet unverified belief that in every debate there is a subtler debate that goes on in the mind, sometimes subconsciously, and that is of all the things that we would rather not admit in a debate to make us lose face, or to make the other side more credible.

Sometimes this annoys me, and then at other times, it occurs to me - why am I annoyed? Why does it irritate me that someone isn't lying/pretending?
