Finding the truth for something to believe in has a number of different factors … Belief is subjective first and foremost. So people will be able to create for themselves personal truths. That is another argument … However, one who is unbiased can use techniques to compare the lot of them with each other.
For example:
a) Historical evidence
b) Language and interpretation of scripture
c) Logic of text
d) Fulfilment of prophecies
e) Beauty in scriptures
f) Cohesion of ideas and concepts within the faith - i.e. no contradictions
g) Authenticity of narratives
All of these things provide unbiased means to assess which faith is grounded in truth and which is more myth based … These are not foolproof but they offer direction.
Accepting some and Rejecting others is done on the basis of how a filter works. Have you ever played “Guess Who” - If you ask whether the person is male, got curly ginger hair and has glasses the responses will help narrow down to a select few … Essentially we have accepted some and rejected the faces we turned down … Filtering is very much a logical process and I’m surprised you have not been able to make this connection.
