Funny. The very paper itself is proposing that belief isn't needed, because we have measurables. Or you can look at the real-world, impressive work of Mark Epstein, who does a great job coming at meditation (and Buddhism) from both an insider and an outsider's perspective. (he's a trained and licensed psychiatrist)

So maybe it's really more of an anti-belief thing here?
