Here's a good topic to pick apart IMO. Square your definition of belief with how that squares with the intuitive person who realizes much of their experience through listening to their intuition heavily.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.When a person is extremely experienced in a field they absorb a lot of information subliminally. That gives rise to an intuitive sense of what is wrong, which should then be treated as a hypothesis to be tested. If this is what you are calling intuition then I don't have too much argument with your statement, other than the poor syntax. If you are saying that intuition should replace examination and testing then you're on your own

Which of my definitions of belief are you talking about? How can anybody listen to their intuition heavily?

Intuition is fine tuning your sense with your knowledge, like a doctor, a detective, a farmer, etcetera... although there is an acknowledgment of the possibility of being wrong.
Belief is based on what you hold to be true. Example: I believe you to be human because no other animal has the ability to type questions on the Internet.
@FvckY0u I find the assumptions behind your OP to be irrational.
@FvckY0u I appear to have stung you, which is hardly surprising given what appear to me to be your cognitive failures.
@FvckY0u And I can be equally dismissive of your opinion. 
@FvckY0u Ah, your cognitive failures are now as manifest as your social failures.
@FvckY0u I agree, you are pathetic.
Intuition and reasoning are from different yet connected cerebral hemispheres.
I'd reason that successful intuition is predicated upon knowledge.
I'd like to change my choice to door three thanks Monty.
Consider, if you will, the complete inability to intuitively predict cards.

Much of what people call intuition is no such thing, it is the workings of the unconscious drawing on memories and experience and extrapolating likely outcomes.
Elsewise it is instinct, survival trait we are born with and which operate at a genetic level.
It is the misinterpretation of these unconscious extrapolations and instincts that many people mistake for religious experience, miracles and faith promoting experiences.
There need not be a paranormal explanation for anything the conscious mind finds inexplicable the human body and brain are capable of so much more than we realise at a waking level.

@FvckY0u No bias intended, just my opinion 
Intuitively, I concur. Wherever I go, I go with my gut first and foremost.
