(150 posts)to read "The Republican Brain: The Science of Why They Deny Science and Reality" by Chris Mooney. It may help you understand why your sister thinks and sees things the way she does. Their brains are wired differently and no matter how much evidence you show them they will not accept it. It is why creationists can not and will never accept evolution(it's only a theory, they say). Look at all the evidence for that and they still can't accept it. I would suggest you just tell her you will talk about anything but politics or religion with her and maybe you can patch things up and keep the peace by agreeing to leave those subjects alone. That is the only thing that will work because you will never change her mind so just give it up and accept it.
