I have never heard any one ask the question: Know what?
The only plausible right answer is: Knowing how to know the truth
about anything.
What is truth? The truth is nothing more than the right answer to
any problem.
To know means to perceive or understand as fact or truth; to
apprehend clearly and with certainty.
Believing is the function of raising an opinion or fabrication to
the level of a fact without proof.
Believing is what people revert to in the absence of facts.
Believing is intellectual dishonesty, in other words, a form of
lying.
Believing is a lack of knowledge.
Believing is a confession of ignorance.
Believing means not knowing, or not having certainty.
Believing means you do not know.
Believing in something, means you do not know what you are talking
about.
It also means you do not know how to think, use logic and reason.
It also means you have not done your homework, you have not
completed the cycle of learning on the subject in order have
certainty on the subject and know.
Believing means you do not know the difference between right and
wrong.
In order to know the difference between right and wrong, you have
to be able to reason and reason well.
There is good reasoning and there is bad reasoning.
You have to reason based on facts and not on hearsay, speculations,
beliefs, opinions and the like.
Insanity is the inability to reason, the inability to discern
right from wrong, impaired judgment.
Therefore believing is insanity.
The function of believing is intellectual ineptness or grammatic
laziness at the least, intellectual dishonesty in the midst and
insanity at the worst.
If you know, you have no reason to believe.
If you believe, you don't know.
Never comment on anything you are not qualified to comment on ( do
not know) (cannot prove).
If you have done Scientology, and still believe, you do not
understand Scientology.
In other words if you still believe after doing Scientology, you
missed the point, you do not understand what Scientology is all
about and therefore you flunked Scientology. You are not qualified
to talk about Scientology.
All believers are only intelligent enough to argue to defend their
ignorance.

I stand the same. And I also stand to help for those that ask.
