Of course all action is a result of belief. Same thing with inaction. I don't jump off a cliff because I believe gravity is real and I'd get hurt or die. I eat and exercise because I believe that makes my body healthy.
The thing I'm talking about is avoiding beliefs without evidence or without a reasonable, logical flow that others can comprehend as well. Assuming the opposite of religious belief is a belief in socialism is quite silly, IMO. In many ways, a belief that socialism "will work this time" when many historical examples show the opposite is quite similar to pretending to know things we don't know (which is how some describe "faith").
