Beliefs are just that. Beliefs. and "faith" is just that. Faith. Not "absolute fact". Faith.
And the same faith that exists in physics and religion exists in the new field of neuro-sciences. Science demands proof, and for the proof to be replicated by others, at which time it graduates from theory to fact/law until it is proven wrong. Religion only demands faith of its believers.
