It seems to me that people tend to prefer to believe what they want to be real or true, despite evidence to the contrary.

When what you believe is refuted by evidence, you are faced with a choice.

Riddle me this:

When standing up, it's done down,
when lying down, it's done up.

What is it?

Hello Mr. Turtle, the only thing that comes to mind is "SEX" and I doubt that
is the right answer, I think that we are going to need a good clue on this
