Are you a Christian? I am

Umm, no matter how you look at it, if you think your beliefs are wrong you don't believe them. It's just simple logic.

What's the point of having beliefs if you don't believe in them? You can have beliefs about almost anything also, not just religion. This post pisses me off a bit because a lot of good has happened in this world by people willing to fight, and willing to die for their belief in it.

If they're wrong and you know it, then it's not a belief now, is it?

Commenters here fail hard. You don't believe something because you KNOW it's right, but because you THINK it's right. Belief implies fallibility by definition. If you believed what you know, that's redundant; knowledge comes from facts and evidence and is concrete. Beliefs can be wrong, and I applaud OP for admitting that, Christian or not.

Completely correct. Beliefs are held by the believer without proof. If the belief is proven, then it is no longer believed, it is known (thereby becoming knowledge). Why would you die for the sake of something which is (by its very definition) unproven and possibly incorrect?
