Nobody else can see these squirrels because to everyone else they are not real, but to Rudy they are real. Those who are still seeking truth are still learning. When talking to someone who is still learning it's easier to communicate with them because they are more understanding and more open minded. If you communicate with someone who claims to have found truth, they will only see truth in one way, instead of a looking at things in a broader perspective. I don't think that as an adult of any education, or lack of, makes your truth different.
Truth is truth and there is no changing it.
Just because one person is more educated, doesn't mean that their prespective on truth is any different from others. There is a thing called ultimate truth. It may not be what we believe though. We may not know until we die. Perhaps atheism is true.
