What would distinguish a  belief from any other kind of mental activity
(besides just rational proof) ?

Am I constantly believing that I will walk instead of fall when I place one
foot before the next?

And what would distinguish  materiality from immateriality or consciousness
from lack thereof?

I certainly don't want to encourage Cheerskep in his obsessions, but it does
seem that his obsession with clarity would be appreciated  here.


                         ************

Beliefs, in the sense I'm trying to convey, are not alternatives to proofs;
they are fundamental, prior to proofs, and remain the 1st, the elemental, the
condition of consciousness.  Before proof there is belief; after proof, there
is still belief; regardless of proof, there is belief. Consciousness is
belief.
This is not the sort of belief that is equated with a religious dogma or
value
system.
