Persistence wears down resistance.

I am convinced that the act of thinking logically cannot possibly be natural to the human mind. If it were, then mathematics would be everybody's easiest course at school and our species would not have taken several millennia to figure out the scientific method.

Don't challenge resistance. Don't resist challenge.

Applying logic to potentially illogical behaviour is to construct a house on shifting foundations. The structure will inevitably collapse.
