you are absolutely right.
Confirmation are different. Current and illusions of consciousness. Sometimes the world can play along with us once we ordered. It happens.
If you take into account the enormous diversity of the world and the presence of masses hidden from the ordinary man in the street sides, there's always something for us - a terrible anomaly. And if we want to look for these anomalies - they climb from everywhere.
Here it often happens to those with this set up. Men, the prophecies, the secret government and its machinations, the coming cataclysms, and many other contactees and fanatics pull of these topics is somewhat larger (sometimes by orders of magnitude) than there actually is.
For them it is all the way real. Therefore, they can suffer and die for their "right" and there are enemies... and so on.
But if you look for confirmation of friendliness in the world - that around every corner will help, will happen life-saving miracles, you want things to be is yourself, and the world will adapt to your needs. Not so interesting, there is no such charm to the prosecution and the detective, but to live is much nicer.
If you look through old chests and their loved ones memory - there is a lot of things and sometimes terrible. Tried.
But is it necessary? We live not for the sake of those fears of what I encountered for example in the past or in a dream?
Another interesting moment. Some things are absolutely terrible for us may not be.
And some normal things to us, can for people with little other society to be fear and nightmare. After all, we assessed associative. All that is unclear and does not fit our perception is already a good reason to fear.
Sometimes the authors of literature and contactees read close reality, where everything is a bit wrong. They think it's a nightmare, but it is normal. It is their perception of the world here can not accept that someone "walking on their heads".
With Asprin is a funny example is.... and not only.
monster-great and generally something "demonic" (mind and perception) human nature, may be perfectly normal somewhere.
It says only that to go beyond the stability zone, i.e. the generally accepted picture of the world, delicately and cautiously, and generally with good reason.
Otherwise - Oh... and a candidate for the loony bin. And since there are few seats, the majority of candidates writes the popular Tomiki

We perceive is always relative to some frame of reference, and while it has the ability to change. Sometimes too fast, sometimes too slow.<
