What strikes me as odd is that you aren't able to both say 'I don't know and I don't believe' or 'I don't know but I believe'.
I should apologize for being dense or inattentive, but somehow I find it difficult to parse that sentence to the point of being confident that I've correctly understood what you were trying to say. I suspect that I couldn't fail to disagree with you less, but I can't be sure...

autotelic adj. (of an entity or event) having within itself the purpose of its existence or happening.
