Explanation:

- "The majority have believed": This phrase is in the past perfect form. It suggests people held a belief prior to another point in time. However, it doesn't fit the context since the sentence needs a present tense.

- "The majority believe": Here, "believe" is in present tense. Normally, "the majority" is followed by a plural verb to indicate the group's shared belief.

- "The majority is believing": The phrase is awkward and not standard. Continuous tense is inappropriate for this context.

- "The majority believes": This phrase uses the singular verb form. When "majority" as a collective noun is viewed as a single unit, it follows a singular verb.
