"...on the level of belief alone..."

"...on the level of belief alone, it is not possible to distinguish what we believe from what we believe we believe; our actions alonge show what we really believe." That is so intense. I kind of want to skip over the whole believing we believe thing for the immediate moment, just because that has such huge potential to be one of those circular thought processes where I never really get anywhere and eventually my brain just crashes. But about our actions alone showing what we really believe: basically it all come down to the fact that you can say you believe something, and you can even believe you believe it (crud, I was trying to avoid that), but it doesn't mean ANYTHING unless you act on it. Or maybe it means nothing? Anyhow, now matter how much you tell others you believe, or how much you tell yourself you believe you believe, you can't really know for sure until you actually LIVE WHAT YOU BELIEVE. Not really a hard concept in theory. Out of theory, it's a slightly different matter, just because outside of theory, there are other influences to consider. Which is why it is so hard to distinguish true believing from thinking you believe, etc. And I'm starting to see the circle, so I'll just stop there
