Eliezer, my understanding is: “belief is to believe in something”.
Whether you call it science fiction, heuristics, overcoming bias, history, a belief is a belief.
You can’t prove belief as it’s self-subjective.
You can’t tell someone what they feel is wrong.
Each individual has there equation when it comes to understanding the “dragon” within themself.
If dragons can’t be verified as they have never been verified based on history, why do people still feel the need to believe in dragons and continue to discuss the subject and be fascinated by it?
