But doesn't the fact that the different individuals vary on what they will believe, in and of itself, disprove said beliefs?

Nope.

Or does it prove them all to be true?

If you want to see it that way, then sure.

It does neither, as none can be proven true or false.

You believe that you're right. By your argument, Adamsm's just disproved you.

It proves that if personal belief is the vehicle for reaching transcendent truth then no one should be faulted for following their own heart. It doesn't really say anything about what the truth actually is.

I understand my mindset is a lot different then most... but if there was no way to prove one is right and another is wrong, nor prove none/all are right or wrong...
Why bother waging wars about it? Why do Jehova's 'Witlesses" stand on my poarch for an hour hoping to convert me? Why do people like american voter's place such consideration into what religion someone is?
I would like to say 'why bother practicing the religions' but I won't.

Why do you put any thought into someone who believes differently from you?

Those are exactly the things you do when you
can't
prove your views right. You either bang them into other people be force or law or you try to speak to them on a personal level. If it was a simple logical proof you could just publish a textbook.

Which is irritating as hell, but I digress. I understand my mindset is a lot different then most... but if there was no way to prove one is right and another is wrong, nor prove none/all are right or wrong...

There's this thing called faith, and it appears that you don't have any. I'm not trying to be condescending here, but if you don't have faith, you won't understand and probably never will.

Since someone can come back with a certain theory based on fictional encounters with spirit entities on a scripted TV show?

It might be the part of me that still wanted to believe after Christianity began to seem... impossible, I guess.
When I was around ten or twelve my family went through a very rough financial time. My grandmother had died recently and it had set off a whole chain reaction where I began to doubt everything I had believed about christianity.
I went through a whole phase where I began to study evolution and become wrapped up in all sorts of scientific explinations for things that I had previously attributed to the religion I was born into. I found out that lightning was not 'the angels bowling' and all that.
I was shunned in school, other kids calling me insane for thinking humans came from monkies. I was shunned by my family for questioning all things christian. I began asking for proof, or an explination of any sort why they believed.
The answers would always boil down to "Because it's true!" which never made sense to me.
The part of me that asks these questions is the part of me that regrets making my family hate me. One thanksgiving, after grace, I asked why we were thanking 'god.' I mentioned he didn't kill the turky or mash the potatoes or pay for any of our meal or work for any of the money we spent on it...
When noone could offer me an explanation, and instead just yelled and screamed at me for being diffucult, I became athiest more or less.
I guess a part of me still wants there to be some fantastic explination to everything, rather than what I know. A part of me wants to be able to shout "ALIENS DID IT ALL!" Or something.

Because He created it all?
Either way, this is why I like being Mormon. I get Christianity AND Science.

I still prefer Wicca; sure you have the morons who know absolutely nothing thinking they know more then you, but other then that, it's the one that works best with me.
