Credibility of Belief

Oh, forget it.

Depends what you mean by belief.

There are the facts. That's one thing... but even demons believe and tremble
There is the treasure, treasuring, delighting in and loving the truth, that's another

There is 'taste and see that the Lord is good!'

Nothing my eye, Something for sure
I believe what i see, and what i can logically infer from what i see.

And in science i pay more attention to the observance and not so much the interpretation of the observance and have my own beliefs about those observances.

Worldviews come and go, and beliefs happen or they dont. Beliefs often change, and often they do not.

My beliefs:

Materialism is dead end.
Life is intelligently made of an intelligent natural force.
Fine tuning is an act of creative force.
Consciousness is fundamentally apart of reality.
Souls exist.
Evolution and ID are extreme views of the world. The answers are yet to be evidenced, and there is a lot of interpretational baloney out there on both sides.
Most religions are outdated with a few good philosophies mixed in with poison.

Loving God and my neighbor as myself.
I'm not sure what was originally posted. But to me "credibility of belief" means where are you when the rubber meets the road. Do you walk the walk, or are you all just talk? I don't care whether you teach saved by faith or the ten commandments, actions speak louder than words. In Hebrew, "emunah" means both faith and faithfulness. I don't care what someone is screaming at me that they believe. I'd rather have an unbeliever loving his neighbor as himself any day than someone profess to believe in God yet live as though God didn't exist.
