your ancestors believed in many different gods and many different myth stories.

unfortunately for you, that is not a better one. that is an outdated one which evolution replaced by presenting a superior explanation for everything contained in the bible concerning origin of species.

Now after the discovery of DNA in the cell, the fairy tale of evolution for grownups can be filed in the fiction section of the library, where it belongs.

belief requires a conviction/confidence of truth. acceptance of something until it is disproved or falsified does not imply confidence or conviction in the truth of that something.

I don't see how one can accept a scientific theory without having at least some confidence that it is true.

if they have confidence that it is true, then they have a belief. belief requires acceptance, acceptance does not require belief.

it should be noted that the phrase "reasonable belief" is sometimes used synonymously with the concept of acceptance by those who are unwilling to give up the term "belief"

this is a good article on critical rationalism, if you care to understand why belief is not required.

The only informed opinion you ever give is when your mouth remains closed.

our faith and beliefs on that which we think is solid and true which we don't

l like that KellyJay holds true (from of the posts l have read over the years) to the beliefs that his religion tells him to exhibit.

And l respect him for this.

l do not agree with them , however l respect them.

You on the otherhand are an assclown of the highest order and l fart in your general direction.
