Cherish Your Doubts
Doubt is the key to the door of knowledge; it is the servant of discovery
A belief which may
not be questioned binds us to error, for there is incompleteness and imperfection
in every belief.
Doubt is the touchstone of truth; it is an acid which eats away the false.
Let no one fear for
the truth, that doubt may consume it; for doubt is a testing of belief.
The truth stands boldly and unafraid; it is not shaken by the testing:
For truth, if it be
truth, arises from each testing stronger, more secure.
Those that would silence doubt are filled with fear; their houses are built on shifting sands.
But
those who fear not doubt, and know its use, are founded on rock.
They shall walk in the light of growing knowledge; the work of their hands shall endure.
Therefore
let us not fear doubt, but let us rejoice in its help:
It is to the wise as a staff to the blind; doubt is the attendant of truth.
