Belief and doubt. These are the poles of the false dichotomy which is generated by the use of religion as a moral baseline, as opposed to science aka 'observation'.
Believing in something which cannot be proven or reliably observed, and worse, defending the same sometimes to the death of a perceived disbeliever, or other adversary, is a ridiculous practice which has been made normal by the acceptance (and tolerance) of 'religion'.

When something has been 'observed' as being true, valid, or authentic, anything to the contrary reveals itself to be a delusion (aka 'Apep'). Discernment is key.
This habit of rigorous belief in spite of contrary evidence, should be classified as a mental illness, not as something noble or upright. Yet, false pride and intellectual laziness typically combine to keep one locked in their unproven and unprovable position. That reveals an emotional immaturity; immovable 'dogma' has no place in science or in life.
Adherence to the principle of Ma'at does away with all of this. When you only operate on the basis of what can be proven and observed, it simplifies everything.
