    The belief is the solid structure. It’s science, almost: instead of taking experimental results, and work out a theory to explain it, you take what should be true, and therefore must be true, and therefore is true, and work out something, anything, to prop it up.

      I think that’s more the function of the belief rather than the belief itself, but you’re not wrong.
