Why do you believe in what you believe in?

How is this relevant?

It's a hypothetical.

So... you're saying there's a possibility X-rays aren't real? Even though we use them every day to chart stars, observe bone structures, etc.? Just because you can't sense them? That's a shame.

It was an answer to your prior inquiry:

1. "Prove to me your God" is a logical fallacy. That would be like if Drake said, "Disapprove to me my God".

You really can't prove one way or the other would sum it up I suppose.

Just like there is a possibility (though likely to be very miniscule) that we truly do not exist or are bound by a web of lies and deceit.

I personally am a doubter of almost everything. It may seem unreasonable but... I find something out of wack in every religion/belief that I, myself, have researched. I have questioned a lot of things and had long disscusions dealing with a lot of theories.
I do believe however that anything is possible. We could all very well be someone elses dream, or in an alternate realm. In fact there are those who belive that there are many alternate dimensions and that those are where our dreams come from. These people, including me on some notes, blive that after every choice we make in life, other realms are born for the choices we didn't make. Also, many think that the ideas that people get for games, shows, books, and ect. are founded by the traveling energy from the other realms. You may ask how is that possible? Well, since these other realities come from the decisions that we did/didn't make then we are connected to them in some way. Keep in mind that this is only on POV of this type of theory.
But of course, we can never really prove any of these theories for the are just that, theories; thoughts and ideas that people have in a small attempt to find order in this world. ^_^ I could literally go on for days, but I will stop here. I do not wish to bore you all to tears.^_^

But... that was... my point to begin with? I think we're arguing about nothing here.

There's a huge difference between something that has been proven to exist and a theory that can't be researched. X-rays are real. Why is this even a debate?

Do you believe in quasars? Protons? Anti-matter? Vacuums? How about carbon dioxide?

I believe in my own little world, but even then it's not really a belief. I have researched every religion that has more than one god and I have found so many similarities in all of them that ignoring them is impossible! I have in my mind a religion where humans were not created by gods but the other way around. Each religion have their own dieties and beliefs, but there are laways usualy somethnig you can find in them to link them all in one big warped chain! The most amazing thing I have found would have to be about the Phoenix. All religions have some type of refernce to a bird like creature who is born/lives in flames that only lays one white egg....sometimes a black as well (housing the pain and fear of the world...DO NOT HATCH!). Sometimes the creature has the head of a bull....sometimes it's reborn every 100 years....sometimes reborn evey 10,000. But there are very few religions without it's presence!

All religions are related....all religions are true. The gods are based in their strength not by the power the earth gives them, but by the belief we give them.
