94. I made a confusing typo. My apologies

I should have said "I can choose to not believe that magic beans DO exist without using faith, so long as I also choose to *NOT* believe that magic beans DON'T exist"

I left out a "NOT", and that changed the meaning completely. Sorry about the confusion.

The point is that if I choose to "NOT believe" they do exist and "NOT believe" they don't exist, then I have no beliefs in things unproven, therefore I have no faith with respect to the question of "Do magic beans exist?"
