No Immunity to Doubt
July 21, 2023
"There is no mystery of the faith that is immune to doubt." - Hans Kung
That is true of everything for the thinking person.
We decide it might rain; so we carry an umbrella. We sure not sure it is going to rain. We are not sure it will not. Faith is not the surety; it is revealed in preponderance of confidence that leads to the act of umbrella-carrying.
In the realm of faith and ultimate concern, doubt it part of the relationship and the process that is always leading us into deeper seeking and dialogue with what is Other than us.
Did Kung nail it?
I do not think he was trying to nail it.
He was describing it.
