The only other way to proceed is assume that everything exists (even things you are unaware of) and that everything is true (including contradictions) until proven not to be. How do you think that would work?
Hmmm.

How do I think that would work ?

I don't 'see' how it possibly could work. Assume that all things that not only I, but all other human minds can imagine are actually real. Even situations that are mutually exclusive ? That Princess Stephanie is actually sitting on my lap right now ? No offense intended, but that sounds 'stupid' to me.

How do you explain my belief in the Christian concept of God ?

Many people claim that it is a story fabricated by human minds, a 'psychological construct'. A fairy tell, or whatever. And affirmations are delusion, or mass hysteria. That I can understand (and disagree with).

Do you think you have a truly open mind, devoid of any belief system ?
