How do you define 'belief'?

glizxzy:

noun. something believed; an opinion or conviction: a belief that the earth is flat. confidence in the truth or existence of something not immediately susceptible to rigorous proof: a statement unworthy of belief. confidence; faith; trust: a child's belief in his parents.

Salmon:

To know that something will happen and put your trust in the fact that it will happen

MiraAngel:

Thoughts and actions that you base your way of living upon.

dogscats49:

1. an acceptance that a statement is true or that something exists. "his belief in the value of hard work" 2. trust, faith, or confidence in someone or something. "a belief in democratic politics"

MiraAngel:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @MiraAngel Thoughts and actions that you base your way of living upon. \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) That is my personal definition of belief.

glizxzy:

it all correct

umaira:

so thoughts and actions. not only thoughts? or is it a thought that anticipates some action?

glizxzy:

yes

glizxzy:

its because u belive that action is true then you have belief it will work

umaira:

I was a little confused, as I thought the word beliefs is a little heavy,, like if we say perception we all know it is something just in mind. but when we say 'belief' it kind of makes us to take the responsibility of what we are going to say.

glizxzy:

in a way it does

MiraAngel:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @umaira so thoughts and actions. not only thoughts? or is it a thought that anticipates some action? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) Some people's actions are based off of their beliefs... actually most people's actions.

glizxzy:

because just like replying to a question you believe its the right answer

StarSwirlDreamGirl:

1. an acceptance that a statement is true or that something exists. "his belief in the value of hard work" 2. trust, faith, or confidence in someone or something. "a belief in democratic politics" PLease note that this is a citing from Google! Have a great day!

MiraAngel:

yes. Think of it this way... You and your family believe in always being polite and kind to others so you will most likely act off of that belief... Like open doors for others or just do something polite to the people around you. Do you get what I'm getting at?

Do you get what I'm getting at? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) yes that the belief is something cognitive but it is evident in our actions. there, it can be detected
