Skepticism is a fairly important facet of our mental lives—as a question and as a challenge to familiar beliefs and ways of seeing. So how does skepticism relate to faith, and how can faith make room for a healthy kind of skepticism? With reference to W. E. Bowman's "The Ascent of Rum Doodle", Walter Lippmann's "Public Opinion", and G. K. Chesterton's (astonishingly good) introductory essay to the book of Job, this episode explores the use—but also the limits—of adding a dash of skepticism to your thoughtlife.
