Do you think there can be someone's else's beliefs opposite/different to yours, that can be as true as yours?

i see religon is tagged on here. I apologize for ruffling feathers in advance and can assure you as I type this I am as calm as a cucumber. Mostly I am thinking about raiding he frig right after this.

I think validaiton in terms of religion is proportional to the evidence that supports. Data and evidence is how we understand our reality until it comes to God and religion --than for whatever reasons all bests are off with personal revelation trumping evidence. I am not sure who that is beneficial to that person or society at large.

In terms of the word "true" true is contigent upon the evidence that supports it.

I think when a lot of people say beliefs it comes down to emotional validations. If you can change that phrase of belief to 'how I feel about" the idea it being emotionally validation focused is probably accurate.

In terms of the softer pieces of religion, if that is the tool for building community or processing challenges in life I am not sure if a validiation is neccessary in an symolically anthropromorphic sense but I see why as a social construct it exists.

@robertsnj this is funny. Because the questioner has no control in what group the bot puts the question.

So even the bot's perspective could be different than the questioners perspective! 😆

And both still could be right! 🤣
