Since we are talking about belief today, how many watched this spot that cost $8 million dollars? How does this commercial strike you? I'm willing to be that if you are not a Scientologist, that it probably doesn't make you want to sign up to be one. You may even be a little bit threatened, annoyed, or subtly jealous. Every wonder why? I think its because most of us have settled on what we believe to be true, and if our truth happened to exclude scientology, then the commercial highlights our sectarian beliefs. While I'm not a Scientologist, I'm willing to bet there is more agreement that disagreement with how we should live our lives. Isn't it plausible that those areas of agreement stem from the existence of universal truth? Isn't it also plausible that those areas of disagreement stem from areas where progress still needs to be seen? For instance, I've always held that truth is external and objective and not internal and subjective as this ad presupposes. It seems irrational that if my truth and your truth are different that they are nonetheless equally true. So how would we go about testing this?  Does your truth system have the bandwidth to test it?
