I'm talking about beliefs, including, but not limited to: people walking on water, filling a boat with a pair of every animal in existence, and travelling to heaven to negotiate, with God, the number of daily prayers required by a believer. None of these things have actually been witnessed, because they simply didn't happen
With respect to the belief that schooling can result in the obtaining of lucrative employment - many people, including myself, have witnessed students acquiring skills and experience in school that they used to obtain jobs that provide ample wages
I don't see a parallel between the two
