Dare I actually post links to philosophy throughout the ages?
Hmmm....perhaps some other time. Although if you'd like some insight
you need go no farther than some of the lesser developed countries.
Simply ask them if they think the world is round or flat, you might be
quite surprised. Ever try explaining how to identify your location
with latitude and longitude to a person who thinks the world is flat?
YIY, now there's some fun. o_O

I believe what I believe and what I believe is that there are many
beliefs, they may be true, they be false, but I don't presume to know
for certain either way.
