The beginning of wisdom is found in doubting; by doubting we come to the question, and by seeking we may come upon the truth.
Doubting what you see is a very odd experience. And doubting what you remember is a little less odd than doubting what you see. But it's also a pretty odd experience, because some memories come with a very compelling sense of truth about them, and that happens to be the case even for memories that are not true.
By doubting we come at truth.

Now that which you do not at all doubt, you must and do regard as infallible, absolute truth.

By doubting we are led to question, by questioning we arrive at the truth.
By doubting we are led to enquire, and by enquiry we perceive the truth.
To worship God in truth is to recognize Him for being who He is, and to recognize ourselves for what we are.
Never once has Republican world said hey, maybe we should look into how police officers are carrying out their solemn public responsibility to serve and protect. No - no right wing website in America is investigating or will ever investigate how well police officers do their jobs.
