Just A Thought ~ BUT IT MUST BE TRUE, BECAUSE IT’S MINE

When we say "I believe...", it means, 'I have an idea about something', and because we ~ the Great 'I' or Ego ~ has an idea, we take it to mean that it must be true, usually without examining or questioning it, because we want it to be true. Most of our ideas and beliefs come from others and are not really our own; we adopt and embrace religions and politics, speaking of them as if they are our own, unaware of the harm they cause.
