an acceptance that a statement is true or that something exists.

trust, faith, or confidence in someone or something.

"I've still got belief in myself"

Which is completely different from a hypothesis, which is that something might be true and we should test it

be·lief noun

  1. an acceptance that a statement is true or that something exists.

"his belief in the value of hard work"

\2. trust, faith, or confidence in someone or something.

"I've still got belief in myself"

I don't believe in anything without evidence and if I do I seek to correct that

belief without evidence is a failure of the mind

All religion is untested made up nonsense, no exceptions.

If you make it up without evidence, it can be thrown out without evidence. Athiests make no claims, there's nothing to throw out.

The real answer to these questions is "we have no idea", everything else falls under russel's teapot.
