Why You Are Wrong When You Say "Seeing Is Believing"
“Sometimes the most real things in the world are things we cannot see.” – Polar Express
Seeing is believing is the scientific reasoning everyone needs to be certain that that thing exists.
But that is not what creates all our thoughts, our feelings and our beliefs.
Those are not seeable, yet, they are very real to us.
So why do you keep thinking that you can only believe things you see?
Have you ever thought that it was the other way around?
What if believing was seeing?
You see what you believe in.
Whatever you believe in, you will find proof, for yourself, that that thing exists.
Fanatics show that the best, because they want everyone else to believe what they believe.
If a person saw god, for example, then they would definitely believe in the existence of god.
Whether they actually “scientifically” saw god or not, or whether god actually exists or not, does not matter to them.
They experienced something that made them believe and they will find things to support their belief.
God will appear everywhere to them, or signs will show up that they actually experienced what they experienced.
That doesn’t mean that god needs to exist for everyone, but for them god is part of their reality.
To put this in another, maybe more relatable example, let’s look at the stereotype of women as bad drivers.
Anyone who believes this stereotype will see only bad drivers that are women.
Of course they will come across bad male drivers, but they won’t acknowledge them as such.
They will make an excuse or find another reasoning of why they are not bad drivers.
And if they see a woman driving, they might do the exact opposite where they then try to find everything wrong with their driving style.
That does not mean it is true, but they will see it that way.
