Sure. I believe that you can *believe* whatever you want.

It is a cognitive misconception that it might be possible to know what someone else really believes and how they experience it is possible.
Even when being explained in detail by someone it still has a barrier of how one would experience some stimulus or idea versus how someone else would.
How one experiences love, or the color blue, or a clouds appearance of texture...
Just because we have words that point to the same things it doesn't mean they are experienced or understood equally.
So it is just a matter of instrumental values/scale.
This argument in itself proves that "I" for one do not believe what you believe...!

Well...you see.....my gift is making you believe that I believe what you believe. Whether I do or not. So, I can't really answer that question. As long as you believe it.....that's what you want right?? Keep it interesting by making you question whether or not I fully believe what you believe..that's fun.

Yes, I believe that you believe what you believe, however, I do not necessarily believe in the thing that you believe. I may believe what you believe, but it is possible that I don't believe what you believe. It all depends on what it is that you believe, and what it is that I believe.

I find it fairly unbelievable that you would believe that I believe what you believe 100% of the time. However, it's not entirely impossible, either. Believe it! ;oD

I believe that you believe that. I know what I believe is uniquely my own perception.

i don't believe what you believe - whatever it is that you believe i just don't believe it!
and even if i would have believed it, now that you might believe it, knowing that you do believe in that whatever, i don't believe it anymore!
period.

Do I believe what you believe? Hmmm Well....You believe that I believe what You believe....? Interesting....I believe that if you believe that I believe that you believe is an incorrect belief.... that is to say that i believe that your belief that you believe that i believe what you believe is wrong, your belief is faulty.... in reality I don't believe that you believe that I believe................................. I BELIEVE this has lost its humor....
