Where are my comments circular? You were so quick to dismiss the info on website for only reason you mentioned: it seemed crappy and complicated to you. So I (also quickly) assumed few apparently wrong things about you.. :-) Also sorry for the smiles if they irritate you, I'm just used to write them :-) But don't take my comments too literally .. I didn't expect that you actually "believe TV news or priest" it was just alegory to "common or generally accepted knowledge vs. religious traditions".

Ok, so you say you don't have room for "belief" and you dont belive into anything.. well how can you work and function in normal life then? I mean, you have to believe into something. You have to believe that the thing that your eyes see is there.. You are actually believing into tons of things.. (at least I understand the word "belief" that way :-) You cannot be 100% certain about anything .. only logically constructed virtual words like logic can provide "certainity" and do not need any belief.. But real word? Almost nothing is certain.. you have to use your assumptions and belief whether you wish or not.. you cannot fully trust even your own senses and your own mind..
You are choosing to believe every moment of life, everyone of us does .. and especially every time you refuse to try to learn something new that seems to contradict your current belief.
