"I have a lot of confidence because I can defend my convictions with good evidence......Dogmatism results when we cling to our views without proper justification."

Psychological Confidence
You might have heard a person say, "I'm absolutely certain!" They could feel that they are absolutely right about something without real evidence or qualified convictions and they could be dead wrong! This is a psychological error people make. They're psychologically limited as quoted by Greg Koukl. We all are to some extent. But as a confident Christian I know my convictions are true, not because of my emotions towards it or because I was raised that way or socialised to think in this manner, but by careful examination I have good reason to believe them.
