You cannot seperate belief from reality without separating one reality from another.
The emergence of one reality from another is like an immaculate conception - there seems to be a new entity, a child, yet there was no conception... its a miracle!
Later on the miracle is solved/explained: Jesus said:
I and the father are one.
Meaning: there really is no child separate from the father, no new reality separate from fundamental reality.
Its an optical illusion, a trick that plays out in our minds manifested as conviction and believe... now you can argue that this illusory belief emerges from whatever is perceived directly (from reality) but this is not really correct as the child has never not been the father - it hasn't emerged from him, and as such it hasn't been separated from him (even one might believe this is the case).
