How does one go about "Proving" one's "Views" or "Beliefs" Chapper?

Let's take God as an example, that's a "belief", and in my "View" Celtic FC are the pre eminent club in Scotland. Do you see where i'm heading with this?

How can you Prove "Views" and "beliefs"? Quite simply you can't, they are not things which can be proven, they are mindsets of an individual.

View: To think of in a particular way; regard: doesn't view herself as a success; viewed their efforts unfavorably
Belief: Mental acceptance of and conviction in the truth, actuality, or validity of something


You probably believe that The Rangers are the Biggest Club in Scotland but can you "Prove" it?

Of course not.

and we're back on religion...

what have we just been talking about?

walter smith is a bad man because...

well, show me.

maybe i could have worded it better, maybe you could have read for the way it was intended rather than using it as a stick to try to beat someone with. what i was getting at was basically the point you're trying to make in your signature.

I have no intention of explaining...again, how views and beliefs cannot be proved. What has been proven is that Walter is guilty of some of the things MTS has said. Maybe not all, but certainly some. The links are there.

i'm not asking you to explain and i didn't earlier, you've taken the word "belief" and used it to go on a tangent as i said earlier to try and show how intelligent you are and stupid you think the person you're trying to argue with is. Belief isn't just about religion.

It is my belief that walter smith didn't know that craig whyte was behind the charles green takeover.
Mindy believes he was.
If he can prove it i'll accept his belief that walter smith is xyz

Am i talking a foreign language?

for a smart guy you don't half play dumb when it suits.

the links don't prove anything except maybe the bit where he said he welcomed the take over, now that's hardly earth shattering is it?
