on 'there'

I used to say "I believe there is something", meaning that I did not believe in the christian god, but that I did believe in a divinity. However, in the same year I said that, I stopped believing in that divinity, and started to become a real scientist. I now pretty much believe in atoms, elements and the laws of physics. (but I do realize that those laws only attempt to describe processes that we do not fully understand)

recently I have come to understand why stating "I believe there is something" stopped me from belief. I could not agree with that sentence. I do not believe there is something, I believe something ís.

Because 'there' implies that something is in a place somewhere, but I do not believe that. A holy spirit would be everywhere
