Doubt is a relative absence of belief. One can doubt anything, but one cannot doubt everything. To doubt everything, to have no belief, is to descend into madness. Equally, to believe everything, to have no doubts, is an innocence that will neither last nor end well. Belief with too little doubt invites exploitation. Doubt with too little belief invites paranoia. Doubt and belief in fact constitute a pair. They are always relative to one another. They are tied together in a chiasm.
