"Belief" is unrelated to reality and completely useless in demonstrating truth. Most humans prior to the 16th century "believed" that the Earth was flat and that the observable universe revolved around it. That belief did not make those suppositions true. Likewise, an atheist's belief that we and the universe are limited to what our five senses can perceive is only that, a belief, and it has no more value than the belief of an ancient Greek that the sun and moon are gods.

I have been reading an interesting book (Quantum Physics, Near Death Experiences, Eternal Consciousness, Religion, and the Human Soul by William Joseph Bray) which manages to use quantum physics and the last hundred years of QP experimentation to demonstrate the existence of the soul and an infinite human consciousness (created by an infinite G*d). The version that's available on Kindle is an early draft in need of a good spell check and edit, but if you can get past that, the math, and the writer's intentional repetitions it's a very interesting read.

The thesis of the author is that the mathematics and research proving the quantum nature of this universe validates the religious view that consciousness (me, you, our soul) is infinite in nature (the author is himself a Christian, BTW) and only really completely invalidates one religion, that being Atheism. Atheists are stuck in the primitive view that matter is actually solid, Time and Space are limited to what we perceive, consciousness is created in a finite glob of brain matter, and that when we die "that's it". In other words, the rational science they like to tout but do not understand actually contradicts their severely limited view of reality. They are the "Flat Earthers" of the 21st Century.
