With or Without a Doubt...

After having a discussion about the first chapter in Tim Keller's book, The Reason for God, I thought a good topic for discussion came out of it.

When a person is asserting a creed, they're obviously claiming their faith in that particular belief. Doubt, on the other hand, could seem to be an antithesis to belief, but in contrast, it implies a definitive belief opposed to something. Essentially, doubt requires a belief that something will not happen or does not exist. Anytime that doubt is present, there should be an examination that takes place to figure out what is instilling that doubt, and what basis it is rooted in.

Once again, these thoughts are not original, they definitely came from a discussion over Keller's book, but I wanted to share that because I'm always a proponent of perpetuating a good conversation :o)
