So I wasn't using belief and faith to mean > the same thing. Semantics. I don't talk of belief in that sense. For me belief is something that you accept having enough information, it's not a guess or something that you think but you are not quite convinced. When you believe something you are sure. I know that in English (and also in Spanish) we use the word "believe", as saying "I believe that..." when you are not quite sure, and it's just something that you think that could be true but you have some doubts. Well, when I talk about believing in these other contexts, it's not like that. It's basically "to accept something". You could not be totally sure or convinced at the beginning, but once you are on that path (the path of believing something) you can see more evidence that confirms your initial acceptance or to deny it, and then you don't believe that any more. Then I could say: to believe (in this context) is to be convinced about something. Of course you can understand the word in other meaning, but I explain how I'm using it here. > | > that you're willing to perceive. And your filters are > | > contradictory.

And about I'm at an "extreme"... may be, I don't want to be a mediocre anyway
