I assume a materialist world, primarily because I have no evidence of a dualistic existence. In this materialist world my thoughts which include any faith, belief or knowledge I may profess, seem to be an arrangement of fundamental particles and fields ... whatever.

But in regards to being the police of what is *actual* knowledge, as opposed to speculation, materialism for me has no legitimate competitor.
