"I believe like that" is not necessary.

Yes he says so, but the part "I believe... as I believe" gives already this meaning."I believe in my religion as I believe in facts, I believe like that" is translated into Turkish as the following:
Dinime, gerçeğe nasıl inanıyorsam öyle inanıyorum, böyle inanıyorum."
So we see that if we are to translate it in the way you suggest, we will have said "öyle inanıyorum" for twice. And this will be wrong.

you are right about the last part pommes_frites and sirinler, it will be this way:

I believe in my religion the way I believe in the fact itself
