[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suspect that a poster on the other “doubt” thread has strong doubts themselves, which explains their “troll” comment.  I was taught that doubt is a good thing. That it’s natural to doubt and natural to remain faithful despite having doubts; that doubt makes your faith stronger.

What were you taught about religious doubt?[/quote]

That doubts are the flip side of faith. They coexist.

However, just as there is no substitute for hard work, there is no substitute for disciplined spiritual practice. You can have both faith and doubts that you are capable of creating good art but there is no substitute for getting into your creative zone and making art that communicates feelings/ places/ moments in time in ways that words can’t express.

Faith and doubts are the co-joined twins inside one’s head that is always chattering away -/ but religious practices (prayer/ worship/ meditation/ sacred music need to be lived). Religious practices represent different forms of knowledge and experience to both faith and doubts. [/quote]
