HERE is a quote worth remembering, especially in the light of the terrorist events that have blighted Europe, and even more so the Middle East: ‘The opposite of faith is fundamentalism.’
To some, this might seem counterintuitive but that would be to misunderstand faith.
Faith does not shun doubt. Rather, faith acknowledges the human reality of doubt. Just read the Gospels and see how the disciples were a confused bunch who, in that state, were still loved by Jesus Christ. Faith with doubt allows space to grow in both humility and knowledge.
