I observe some people believe something which is not exist materially such as ghost, bad luck, etc. But, some people tend to see first then go to next step believe. Or, there are some people who see something but not believe it.

..well, we really have differences in viewing things.. Yeah, there are people whose belief is "to see is to believe" but most Christians would believe in the unseen world.. You see, seeing and believing is really two different things.. The first would rely on the eyes while the second will rely on the instinct.. For me, I rely on both..

Hi raynejasper: that's the christian problem that some people can hardly understand. How can you beleive in something you don't see? It's all abouth faith. You feel the signs that make you feel strongly that what you beleive it's true but you can't completely explain it to a skeptical. You understand this in a spiritual way. Thanks for reading.

Hi riani: yes to see and to beleive are two steps different in the theory of knodlege. You can beleive withou seeing or in the other hand to see something and even with that don't beleive about this or to see and beleive at the same time. Best example of this it's Saint Tomas who decide not to beleive on Jesus resurrection until he watched him with his own eyes. Hope you like my answer. Have a nice day
