Belief is like a personal guidebook to reality: it tells us not just what is factually correct but also right and good. It fundamentally informs our behaviour. It would be nice to think these guidebooks are reliable and dispassionate, but it has become clear that they are not. Beliefs are largely a product of our fallible psychology, gut feeling, the company we keep and biological differences such as how easily we scare. - Graham Lowton, New Scientist,

Beliefs are born of our experiences, context and time. It is worthwhile to evaluate the validity of our beliefs periodically.
