Ostensibly the conversation is about Psychology.....
Actually, the word "believe" and subject "good and/or bad"
are in the realm of religion.
In a sense, Psychology is "the religion" of the secular- ites.
It doesn't work much better than the other kind.
True progress comes when we examine the "belief systems"
that we have accepted as being a part of ourselves.
The question that needs to be answered is: Who am I when
I set aside my "beliefs".
1. It frees me from my automatic responses.
2. It opens myself up to the possibility of discovery.
