I "believe" in the power of teddy bears to make all things better. I "believe" that human beings are, at the end of the day, worth the trouble.

And it uses different parts of my brain than belief, as shown by MRI scans.

But, oh, how outraged you are!

Saras says there is no "belief" necessary as the fact of global climate change is a fact. No one is walking around saying they "Believe" in gravity, the fact that the earth circles the sun or that human life is dependent on Oxygen. On the other hand Saras states that it requires at least a little faith to think that Teddy bears will make all things better. Myself, I know for a fact, that Teddy bears do indeed make all things better....just look around you!

Nice billboard idea, xfundy.
