The Opposite Of Faith
Paul Tillich: "Doubt is not the opposite of faith; it is one element of faith" (c.f. "Creo que absurdam est"...).Too often religionists seem to want certainty (True Belief), not faith; doubt seems to play little part in the theology of such people except as an evil. In fact, for many Fundamentalist-Americans, doubt seems to be the enemy -- it's what True Belief is supposed to banish.
Doubt is the enemy of True Belief.
