While being a poor method for making decisions, wishful thinking is commonly held to be a particular form of [[logic]]al fallacywhen it is assumed that because we wish something to be true or false that it is actually true or false. This fallacy has the form "I wish that P is true/false, therefore P is true/false."[1] Wishful thinking, if this were true, would underlie appeals to [[emotion]].

[[Faith]] and [[desire]] go hand in hand, for everyone [[believes]] in what he wants and ''wishful thinking'' is how the [[ego]] deals with what it wants, to make it so. What you desire, you will see. If its [[reality]] is [[false]], you will uphold it by not realising all the [[adjustments]] you introduced to make it so.

There is sometimes a tendency for [[mortals]] to want a solution to their world’s problems, a program, an agenda, a [[revelation]], a [[religion]], some sort of [[state]], some apparatus that will address these problems and solve their [[dilemma]].  This is [[wishful thinking]], and it may lead to [[truth]]ful [[thinking]] for in truth it is in and upon and through your willingness to engage yourself in this [[divine]] friendship we offer sharing it with others with respect for who they are even as you discover more of who you are; it is this [[process]], this [[action]] where [[our Father]] becomes active, and his action is that influence that is [[Change|changing]] your world, gradually eroding the grip of [[fear]] yielding to the [[relaxation]] within that [[state]] otherwise sought but now found in [[love]]. Yes, it is the state of love that we would establish, and how else can love [[grow]], assume its place filling those voids in your [[heart]], in your lives than in and through [[friendship]].[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Friendship-2001-04-04]
