Introduction

I've come to a point where I question everything. So, I needed a way to judge whether something is true, false or ambiguous. I wanted a way to know whether what I believed and what I learned was worth believing in.

I like statistics. They help a person understand the world. They also can be used to deceive. A person needs to know if ideas and speech are legitimate or nothing but propaganda, spin, or lies. I've come to giving my beliefs a percentage, based on what I already know and new information coming in.

For instance, my belief in UFOs is about 35%, at least at this point in time. Years before I nearly fully believed, around 95%. My belief in UFOs has been slowly falling as a percentage as the years go by and as I judge all the information that gets to my brain.

I never completely believe or disbelieve anything. Nothing gets 100% or is fully impossible. There is near full believe, 99.5%, something so true it's difficult to think of something that causes the belief to not be 100%. Yet, I just won't believe that something considered perfectly explainable won't somehow get turned on its' head and become entirely unbelievable due to new information.

The world was flat, now it's round. The percent of belief in a flat Earth at one time in history was probably about 80% to 90% until a new theory called round Earth completely changed that mass belief which includes many different individual beliefs. Now the percent is more like 15% or 20% believe and as an individual my belief in a flat Earth is only about .05%. There is a Flat Earth Society that claims to still believe the old theory.

Essentially many of my opinions are the result of taking in the information from the world and fitting it into a large view of everything. This would be based on each piece of information and the percent of the belief that I take in and whether it might change the overall view.

What do I nearly fully believe or disbelieve? Hmmmmm.....

Well, that is what this blog is for. You will see at what percent I believe in something when the new information comes in. I will comment on news, science, religion, philosophy, advertising, politics, and statistics will all help guide my rating a percentage. This may sound boring, but the blogs will have very little raw numbers data, but educated guesses, trends, historical precedent, and anything that helps fill in a belief possibility.
