As a general rule one shouldn’t believe in stuff that cant be proven.

what do you mean “believe in”? lots of people believe in economic theories that can’t tbe proven. some people believe in the goodness of mankind. everyone has some sort of myth (or likely many) that help them understand the world, regardless of how true or provable they are.

The way i use “believing” would be they regard it as truth.

There is some wiggle room there with agnostic believing making it distinct from “knowing” where you don’t acknowledge room for any self error.

I believe in science and i will use scientific statements as proof of truth but i cant say that i know science is truth because i know science has historically been wrong many times.
