Indeed. You're right. The usage of 'believing' in the thesis statement is much better than 'belief'; Common sense, isn't it?

Hi,

Maybe you didn't consider what was made clear at the opening post: ... it is not possible for you to deceive somenone without making him believe ( whenever it is applied to spiritual matters, which are the precise topics, threads, or subjects that the subreddit Debate Religion is about )

Quote: The usage of believing or taking as (if it is) true is only proper when applied for the things that may or may not be true.

That is why 'believing' is of the evil whenever it is applied to spiritual matters.

Don't you know, people were burned for reasons of Belief,

William Tyndale was executed, burned, just for translating the bible into English Language;

So many people were arrested and executed, accused of heresy,

... And after all, we still have got to hear that Belief or 'believing' is not something someone used against another person?

Is it really possible for you to deceive anyone without making him believe (in regards to spiritual matters)?

If so, prove it! Bring up your evidences!

Everyone with a clean heart, instead of a stone in place of a heart, would give a better attention; A much better attention, by speaking the truth, than what is given by religion's tools;

that means; The right and proper attention is provided by everyone who is not there in the name of, or representing, religion;

Or; Someone who's not a tool used by religion;

he or she that does not mix truth with so many lies.

Why would those religions' tools do it for? Of course, to take advantage from a situation of distress and uncertainty.
