All I am saying is that we choose a belief system, for good or for bad, to try and make sense of the world. Then we build on this belief system and the more we build the more we have to lose if that belief system is compromised.

Rubbish. No need to insult twhitehead like that -even if he doesn't believe in Satan

I understand what you are saying here.
I have had my belief system shattered many times.

Nevertheless mine was a serious question and you seem to have drifted away from that entirely

I believe that is a widely shared but rarely acknowledged concern.
