Do you believe in the saying "to see is to believe?"

There are some people who don't believe on the things or situation unless they've seen it on their two eyes. Do you think we need to see in order to believe? or we just simply believe even though we didn't see? Do you believe and apply this saying on your life?

Well, not really, I still believe things even though I don't see it. For an example, a pre-launch site that gives free stuff, a lot wouldn't believe as long as they see proofs but the problem is when they start to believe it's too late, there are a lot of benefits of believing and putting some faith on something you are not sure. Another is that faith on God, even we don't see Him I still believe and put my faith on.

Yeah, it's sometimes best to just rely on our instinct and have faith and trust on the things that's is not yet clear to us. As I've experienced there are some newly open sites that gives a lot of benefits to those who join as like you, I'm quite doubtful so I only missed some nice opportunities. It's good to take a risk sometimes. Anyway thank you for always sharing with us and enjoy your day!

Well, there are a lot of people that use this philosophy in a lot of things, and depending on the situation, that could be good, but personally I rely on my Trust in Jesus when helping getting me thru things as a lot of times that is better than being able to see something for myself for sure. But in some incidences in people's life when they say they are going to change, we do have to see it to believe it, as most of the time that person is so set in their ways that you never believe them. But over all in order for someone to ever change for others to actually see it, it has to be a personal change within on their mind set as well.

Some aspects I agree is "to see is to believe" Personally in some cases I want to see it to believe in it, as an example im not religious because all the sayings seem unrealistic, if it seems unrealistic i dont believe it before I have seen it, the general sense of the mind I think.

For me, belief is based on faith, as with the Christ, but to see something is a knowledge and they don't fall into the same category as they don't rely on the same support..Enjoy!
