Agreement

I think that everyone can agree that, if a god exists, they would like to believe in that god, and that, if no gods exist, they would not like to be mistaken and needlessly believe in a false god.

Most of us probably also agree that no one has it all figured out.  Each of us is aligned and unaligned with reality in our own unique way.  Our intelligence is limited, but we cannot live life without claiming that some things are true and others are false, and therefore each of us will inevitably be wrong in our claims in some way.  In other words, our beliefs do not make reality.  Instead we are constantly vigilant to align our beliefs with what is immutably real.
