Congratulations! You have discovered an important feature of core assumptions. Every core assumption is religious in nature. What we assume to be real is something we don't question, isn't provable, and we accept it to be real (and, therefore, true) on faith. We all do it. We just do it differently. Each possible core assumption is mutually exclusive, so only one of them can be true. The core assumption that best matches the actual, real world is the one that is true. But what is really real is something we don't fully know, because we are not all-knowing. Also, we are part of reality, so we can't objectively grasp it in its entirety. Everyone reaches the limit of what they know and don't know. At that limit we all have to assume something to be real that we don't know. We don't question it. We can't prove it. And we accept that it is real on faith. We don't know it is real. We trust that it is real. Every person is a person of faith at the level of their core assumption about what is real. This is what the Transparent App helps us reveal so we can be more discerning. This and more is covered in the ground-breaking, critically-acclaimed book "Transparent: How to See Through the Powerful Assumptions That Control You." (www.TheTransparentBook.com). "Transparent" introduces the Critical Assumptions Test which is automated in the Transparent App.
