Views or beliefs (8)
I believe the answer is:
opinions
This clue is a double definition.
'views' is the first definition.
('opinion' can be a synonym of 'view')
'beliefs' is the second definition.
(I know this)
(Other definitions for opinions that I've seen before include "Macbeth bought golden ones" , "'Beliefs, convictions (8)'" , "Personal views" , "Points of view, judgments" , "Personal beliefs or judgments" .)
