Ah, either you are bating me or this is simply your mistake. I never said that my posts are wrong 50% of the time. I said I believe I know what is right 50% of the time and the rest of the time I admit that I just don't know what is right. Admitting that you don't know something is not equivelant to being wrong about something.

An opinion is not exactly a belief. Opinions are formed from the best information available, they are readily modified or even completely reversed...and that is a good thing. When I believe that I know what is right I say so 100% of the time, unless there is a good reason to keep my mouth shut. There are many things that I don't comment on because I don't know enough about the issue to express a belief about it. If I heard my neighbors arguing about their relationship and someone said, "isn't he or she wrong about this or that," I would say, "I don't know," probably 98% of the time because I don't presume to know what is beneath other people's relationship issues.

Beliefs are way different than opinions btw.

Being knowledgeable about everything or right 100% of the time about everything is not realistically human???? I don't understand why this always comes from you in the context of a person believing in God and the message of God. Believers are convinced of the existence of an Omnipotent Creator and generally admittedly unconvinced about a great deal of the rest of stuff surrounding the human condition in this universe.
