I want, therefore it is?

»Människan föredrar att tro på det han helst håller för sant.»
Francis Bacon

Man prefers to believe what he prefers to think is true.

I strongly believe that is true.

Well yes, indeed that is true. I don't want to be rude here, but this may in some cases apply to religious beliefs too.

You're not rude at all to me, I agree with you more than you know... If it was innate and "true" and not a choice, then there would never be any doubts about any God's existence. Well, that's my belief. And...maybe this is what *I* prefer to think is true? :-P
