Is belief physical or non physical?

Any belief is first mental. A religious belief is both mental and by heart. A scientific belief is based on theory and experiment and is based on physics and logic. …The noun "Belief" denotes a mental acceptance of and conviction in the truth, actuality, or validity of something. It is a mental condition in which an individual chooses (based on some facts) to accept something as true, based on his knowledges and his cultural level. As it is not related to Physics (discipline), belief is a spiritual phenomena which can be changed at any time. As it also implies on a neurological work, we could say that Belief can be considered a physical work of the brain, as it requires the action of neurotransmitters and neurons.
