    Concept in Definition ABC

    A belief is what we believe faithfully or it can also be the opinion that someone has in relation to something or someone. These are the two uses that we attribute to this concept in our language.

    What we believe about things usually arises from life experience and that then it makes us believe that such a thing is produced by this or that, or that it is the result of such actuate. But also what we choose to believe about something or someone can be determined by the influence we have received from a close model.
    That is, if our mother tells us all the time when we are children that the fight never leads to anything and that on the contrary we must lean towards it dialogue to solve things, then, we will tend to believe that problems are only solved through talk, becoming an iron belief. Thus many times beliefs arise that become indestructible throughout life.

    On the other hand, it is also common for us to believe in those things that sound coherent to us or that follow a logic, and on the contrary we do not do it in those that seem absurd or meaningless common. That is, if someone, for more

    confidence that we have in it tells us that a cow has fallen from the sky, surely, we do not believe her because she is not telling us something logical, a cow cannot fall because she does, suddenly from the sky, never.

    So generally speaking, a belief refers to the certainty that an individual has about a certain issue. But also, a belief will be that in which you fervently believe, a ideology, a religious doctrine, a personality, among others.

    Belief is something like a model, generally based on faith, created by our mind, which then through interpretation becomes content cognitive of a concrete or abstract fact, which will not present an absolute proof and will not even require a foundation of the type rational to explain it, but even in this situation of lack of verification, it has serious and certain chances of referring to a truth.

    Collective beliefs

    Historically, individuals have congregated and grouped around a set of beliefs, often idealizing these, sharing them and thus constituting what is said to be a cultural and social framework that will be what identifies and them will print a identity. When beliefs are generalized, they establish what is called dogma and thus define the moral necessary to be able to belong or not to that group that defends a type of beliefs.

    Obviously if a person does not manifest the same beliefs that defends the group to which he belongs or wants to belong, surely, will be discriminated on many occasions because of it, not allowing him to express opinions, or he will not be accepted directly so that join the group in question because it will be considered that you will not be able to defend tooth and nail the beliefs that postulate the most.

    belief

    The source or what gives rise to a belief can occur in two ways, external, when the origin is explanations given by people to understand certain phenomena or internal good, when they arise from their own convictions Y thought of a person.

    Belief types

    Although the following distinction is not formal, we can find three types of beliefs: opinions, ideologies and religious.

    The first are subject to rational criteria, which will justify their truth or not, the second, based mainly on the Constitution of the identity that the social group that sustains them and the last ones, the religious ones, whose foundation is outside the cognitive world and one's own experience and that arise from divine revelation or sacred authority.

    Also, we can speak of closed or open beliefs, the closed ones, which include political, religious, esoteric, myths, legends and superstitions only allow discussion or contrast by a certain class of people, chosen by authority, affinity and open ones, such as the scientific, pseudoscientific, historical, conspiratorial, admit discussion by anyone who adheres to the model of logical analysis that is proposed.
