Is the Mind Consistent?

A misconception that dates from a very long time ago is that a mind is mostly consistent. When they are inconsistent, that's a kind of emergency and we have to fix it. I don't think that's true at all. The parts of the mind which we have sorted out into a kind of consistency are a minority that are currently not giving rise to any thought. But the part of the mind that is thinking is full of inconsistency.
