a) the most pragmatic, rational response to the philosophical questions of "why do old habits die hard" and "why people resist change"
b) a nicer way of explaining to someone that no matter how hard they try to change their significant other, the latter will always retain part of their individuality.

a teenage boy comes crying to his father : " why won't my girlfriend Meredith follow me to Mechanical Engineering; all she wants to do is go study Psychology. Is there anything I can do?
father: no. the cherry-phrase we, humans, are creatures of habit applies to her too. No matter how much you have in common, she is still her own individual person.

It's that thing, of when a midget on rollerskates wears all of your clothes and then you pull them through an airport.

When people reject YOUR religion... That's the problem though, isn't it? Which is why all the Genocide.
Der Führer JeepJorp "You stop being human if I'm wrong!"
Hym "To you... Inter-subjectively... That's YOU dehumanizing people... Actively... That's a thing you're doing that you could not be doing and that's actually the problem with you're entire religion."
Der Führer JeepJorp "The Atheists! The Atheists, you see... They just don't understand! You see, if they only knew that if they don't agree with me they're not human! And if I'm wrong I can do whatever I want!" 😡
Hym "Yeah, see, that's the problem. You're insane. You don't see the out-group as 'fully human' and your religion is what allows you to justify the dehumanization of other people. Not that THAT ITSELF isn't a human thing to do but what you're TRYING to do is ENSHRINE A RIGHT TO the dehumanization of others along a certain axis... Which is what makes it wrong and unnatural rather than the human reaction to out-group.... I mean, simply doing the dehumanization is justification for theft when I do it. Which is horsehsit because I'm right when I do it. But that's besides the point. You're insane. Religion bad. Give me my shit. You're using Pot of Greed. My response is Ash Blossom (aka sending little girl to the graveyard).. Do you have called by the grave or not?"
