If "belief" means that I think I know something that I can't truly know, then I have no "beliefs".
On the other hand, if knowing facts counts as "beliefs" then I have a lot of beliefs.
But if you think that I "believe" that Jesus was a Mahayana Buddhist that's your own delusion. I merely suspect that this is the most likely explanation based on everything I know about the Bible, History, and the values and traditions of Mahayana Buddhism.
It would be my best "guess". It's where I would place my money if I had to bet on it based on the current knowledge I have. Is that a "belief"?
You tell me.
Christian - A moron who believes that an all-benevolent God can simultaneously be a hateful jealous male-chauvinistic pig.
Wiccan - The epitome of cerebral evolution having mastered the magical powers of the universe and is in eternal harmony with the mind of God.
Atheist - An ill-defined term that means something different to everyone who uses it.

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
Clearly Jesus (a fictitious character or otherwise) will forgive people if they merely know not what they do
For the Bible Tells us so!
