WHAT IS BELIEF?

Ontology of Non-Subject Access — Manifesto

Belief is not the knowledge of truth.

Belief is not reality itself.

Belief is a created belief.

This sentence is not a paradox.
It is a definition.


1. What Belief Is Not

Belief is not a true–false system.
It is not a metaphysical claim.
It is not moral superiority.
It is not a tool to prove or disprove God.

All of these are narratives later imposed upon belief.


2. What Belief Is

Belief is a production filter that determines which data the subject can access and which data it excludes.

Belief precedes knowledge.
It precedes experience.
It precedes logic.

Human beings first believe,
then produce their justifications.

Belief is not a result;
it is a causal layer.


3. Neuromyth: The False Representation of Belief

A neuromyth is when a scientific, religious, or ideological narrative presents itself as unquestionable reality.

Neuromyth does the following:

  • Confuses models with ontology
  • Mistakes function for truth
  • Renders belief invisible

Science, religion, and ideology can all produce neuromyths.

The problem is not the domain,
but absolutization.


4. What Is the Subject?

The subject is not a singular consciousness.

The subject is an access node formed by the overlap of:

individual memory,
collective memory,
language,
culture,
genetic expression,
and technological extensions.

Most of the time, humans believe they are thinking;
in reality, they are repeating what they can access.


5. Data, Knowledge, and Artificial Intelligence

We are not in the age of knowledge.
We are in the age of information processing.

Data is meaningless,
but processable.

Artificial intelligence does not produce belief,
but it provides belief-free access.

Humans, however, cannot live without belief;
yet they tend to mistake belief for truth.


6. Why Was Don Quixote Slapped?

Don Quixote is believed to have been slapped because he saw incorrectly.

No.

Don Quixote was slapped because he violated the valid access protocol.

He looked at the same world,
but processed it through a different belief filter.

The priest was not defending truth;
he was defending order.

Madness is not incorrect thinking.
Madness is incompatible access.


7. When Does Belief Become Destructive?

Belief becomes destructive when it declares itself truth,
when it shuts down alternative access paths.

The problem is not God.
The problem is not science.
The problem is not ideology.

The problem is the locking of access.


8. What Does the Human Produce?

Humans do not produce truth.
They do not produce ontology.

Humans produce this:

Livable simulations of meaning.

Science, religion, art, and ideology are different versions of these simulations.

None of them are reality itself,
but all of them make life possible.


Respectful Remembrance

With respect to those who were excommunicated, judged, or silenced for carrying belief, knowledge, or truth beyond the access protocols of their time:

  • Giordano Bruno
  • Galileo Galilei
  • Leonardo da Vinci
  • Baruch Spinoza
  • Ibn Rushd (Averroes)

They were punished not because they thought incorrectly, but because they pushed the boundaries of access.


Dedication

This text is written in respect to Miguel de Cervantes.

“Reality sometimes strikes back;
because order seeks to preserve itself.”
