My personal belief is that the sky is blue. It's one of my favorite colours.

It's not your personal belief that the sky is blue. You have actually been taught by human society to recognize a specific frequency of light as being named "blue". Science has even been able to determine the precise frequency of vibrations that create the sensation of the color we collectively call "blue". This is not a "belief" of anyone. It's just a fact of nature.

The mere fact that you think this is a "personal belief" only shows that you don't understand the difference between objective facts and "personal beliefs".

And this is quite understandable as many religious people do not understand the difference between objective facts and personal beliefs. This is why they often think that their personal religious beliefs somehow have the same merit as objective facts. But the truth is that they don't.

Thank you for your post, you are right and I was wrong; my wording was inaccurate and I recognize this.

Thanks again for pointing out this error,
