GD, I'm having a hard time wrappping my head around your definition of belief such that it only applies to things for which there is evidence.

Perhaps we're not using the same meaning of the word ... but it seems to me that belief in that for which there is NO evidence is the essence of belief.


It's very easy for me to "believe" in gravity. But what kind of belief is that? A great big D'UH. I believe in God ... I have ZERO evidence for that belief.
