 The Value of Beliefs

Our humanity is driven by beliefs, and it doesn't matter if reality denies them or presents exceptions, even so our humanity prefers to devoutly cling to its beliefs, because they provide it with certainties, with foundations, with principles, and there could be nothing more worthy for us than having principles.

At the same time, our humanity also prefers to put beliefs in an unworthy place, associated with points of view that cannot be proven by sacred science, which is the newest belief, because we believe that scientific arguments have the last word on reality, but there is no proof that this is so, other than the scientific arguments themselves.

Anyway, honest would be, at least, that we accept the value of beliefs.
