Victorian Doubt
So today I was reading
about the Victorian Era for English class, and I came across a phrase that
really struck a chord with me "The Doubt of Religion." Basically,
what this means is that this was the first time people in the western world
really started to doubt the veracity of religion (in this case, it was mostly
Christianity). And I couldn't help but think to myself one of my favorite
quotes from Religilous where it's host, Bill Maher, drops this chestnut:
"doubt is humble, and that's what human beings need to be." Man, Religilous
is such a great movie. You should watch it if you haven't already.
