It is both sad and hopeful that a modern day admonishment is to "believe in something"

Sad because believing in something (anything) should be table stakes. To have that be the bar means we lack determinism in spades

Hopeful because a low bar means more people can surpass it. The potentiality is ripe for many visions!

Absolutely -- harmonizing the two is very much the task at hand

I was just thinking about this earlier today. Beliefs are often shaped subconsciously and it takes a lot of (worthwhile) effort to recognize them. 

Making the subconscious conscious is a big undertaking, but the results are profound.

People need to read the Gita or Alchemist or something.

Without belief, you aren’t a full person.

Totally

Can’t create new visions without an existing void

to "believe in something" is both a lamentation of our lost sense of purpose and a beacon of hope for diverse perspectives and visions to emerge. Double edged sword

we say "believe in something" far too freely 

there is a substantial difference between believing and knowing. just as the difference between hope and faith. once you understand, you will be well on the way to knowing. 

until then, you'll be stuck in limbo.
