A quick search or two hasn't provided me with a definition of 'alieve', but if multiple people are using it it's probably safe to assume that the word's not a typo. How does it differ from 'believe', which is what I expected to see in that part of the sentence?

This Wikipedia article is the top google hit for alief and for "alieve vs believe", once you tell it to not helpfully replace your search terms.

That is a useful word. Thanks for the heads up!
