Yet again you show you fail completely to understand faith. Why don't you stop telling ME what doubt means to a theologian, and let a theologian tell you - an atheist - what doubt is acknowledged as.

Doubt is a wonderful precursor to greater theological understanding and knowledge of God. The existence of doubt actually creates faith - without which there would simply be mute, one dimensional acceptance.
