To me, a belief is a culturally fabricated perceptual filter, and from my
seat on the side of the fence preferring memes as memory organizers, I
see these belief filters as precluding the meme's activity of storing a
perception in its expected place, because it finds the space already
occupied.
I also see all beliefs as inherently false, precisely because they occupy
this space, like catbird eggs. This is their survival tactic.
This is also why I am a skeptic. I have yet to be shown a belief that
belongs there.
