"I think quite a lot of our 'perception' depends on the perspective we receive."

What on earth does this mean.

"If we are the inquisitive type, we sift through what we are told, and use our experience and common-sense to draw our conclusions."

Problem here is that everyones experience is different and of course it colors your view. Gigen a bunch of facts it's possible for two people to honestly come to different conclusions.
