The first response more true and genuine
more often than not correct;
whereas the second thought is not;
where doubt has plied its course.

I take this as a vote for intuition over analytics. There is certainly an argument to be made. At least that is my gut response. I think the last line would be better served with "now" or "once" in place of "where."

Thanks for your responses guys. Not much of a poem, but it seemed to want to be written.
