Well you would because you are also part of it, I have a good idea how belief & cults work.
Try reading the seminal book " True Believers" by Eric Hoffer
In order to differentiate between belief and reality you need to know the 21st century paradigms presented since the 20th century.
One is the book "Life Itself, Its Origins and Nature", by Nobel Prize winner of Chemestry Francis Crick. In this book he explains how life on Earth was seeded by ETs and is not the result of Darwin's evolution theory.
Also it would be good you read "Where Is Science Going" by Max Plank, and Plank's quotes describing how consciousness is found to be behind every phenomena in the universe. In other words, how consciousness creates the universe and matter.
All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force... We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent Mind. This Mind is the matrix of all matter.
Max Planck
I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness.
- As quoted in The Observer (25 January 1931)
In this way we could start discussing this subject on 21st century paradigms (modes of thinking).
