    But just to be clear, the evolution of your conversation did not show any evidence of an inconsistency in their beliefs that would amount to cognitive dissonance? Because otherwise you would have brought that up, I assume.

      I did make an assumption that if you asked them if it’s okay for a person to rape their own dog, they would have said no.

      I thought that was a pretty safe assumption to make, as I personally would like to believe that being opposed to raping dogs is a shared value for humanity.

      Is having cognitive dissonance somehow worse than being a dog rapist to you? I genuinely don’t understand what you might be trying to get at, here.
