Actually, it's good to question things. But only to find out one can demolish every fact into solipsism or a similar concept. After that one has to accept reality, or at least consider trying to live within the current rule set of reality.

For example, I do believe there is a chance we're living in the matrix, on a flat earth, or whatever. But that possibility does not need to be proven, or even disproven, before I continue living life with the perspective and questions I have. I try to be good, in a way that makes me happy to be me.

I did a LOT of psychedelics, weekly acid trips and monthly DMT departures were common. I've met what some call God. But I just come back to this planet and I only talk about my beliefs when people want to talk about it. I don't think any perspective holds more truth than another, like atheism, religion, spirituality and even sacred geometry.

We come together as individuals and a round earth seems extremely plausible and is the main belief. It does not hurt anybody, so I just accept it. There is no reason to chase something that eventually would not matter.
