Your husband is in denial. I know that sounds trite, but there is no better way to describe it. Changing one's paradigm and worldview can be extremely painful, and frightening. It's much easier to walk out of the room and ridicule the messenger than to acknowledge elementary facts that by all metrics should be obvious to an average seven-year-old child. If one's very being is invested in an illusionary world where the sky is green, it can be very difficult to convince that person the sky is blue, even given reason, facts, and concrete sensory evidence that, under other circumstances, would not confuse a school child.Posted by Lone Bean (here)

He's very smart, has all sorts of official letters following his name blah blah blah....but refuses to believe that our government would do such a thing as 9.11. We've even watched a couple of very convincing documentaries about 9.11 and he just walks out shaking his head and saying he just won't believe it. It's very frustrating for me and he thinks I'm a nut. We can't talk about a lot of things and 9.11 is definitely on the "do not talk about" list. I haven't even bothered to tell him about my interest in UFO's. Funny, he swears he thinks Elvis is still alive but won't face up to stark-raving reality about 9.11 and many other in-your-face events such as the eminent collapse of our economy. I love him, and I hope one day he wakes up, but for now I come to places like this forum to read and talk with others who are awake.Thank you ljwheat,
Your post makes alot of sense to me. I have struggled with my father for the last two years about the issues of the government and 9/11, etc. It has frustrated me that as intelligent as he is, he believes the msm and gov. wouldnt be involved in such acts. It has come to the point that he has actually stopped talking to me about any of these subjects. Crazy thing is, he has actually said he is worried that this "awakening" stuff might land me in a cult. It breaks my heart that he is in such denial about things but I think I have finally come to a conclusion that waking up is a personal journey that happens when the student is ready, and that I can only help the ones that are willing to engage.
I know it's frustrating, but everyone needs to ease into their own awakening at their own pace. Tread gently and continue to plant seeds.
