I think this is closer to a definition for "faith" or maybe
"foolishly-stubborn belief" than a definition for belief. I
believe that we won't get to Mars before the end of the century
but I certainly won't cling to that belief if I see remarkable
progress in space flight technology in the next couple years.
I don't mean to imply that one can't hold onto a belief dispite
overwhelming evidence to the contrary, but that would be a
specific kind of beleif--the foolishly-stubborn kind.
