“Here the only genuine conflict is between true believers. Of a given text in Holy Writ one faction may say this thing and another that, but both agree unreservedly that the text itself is impeccable, and neither in the midst of the most violent disputation would venture to accuse the other of doubt. To call a man a doubter in these parts is equal to accusing him of cannibalism. Even the infidel Scopes himself is not charged with any such infamy.” MenMayGivenDoubtAtheismHolyConflictEqualAgreePositive AtheismBelieverGenuineViolentMidstVentureScopeFactionsTrue BelieverInfidelCannibalismImpeccableDoubtersInfamyAccusing Author:H.

And that, I think, is an attitude that is maybe rare in politics.” PeopleThinkingGivingFeelsAttitudeDoubtPositionBenefitsRelationAgreeAssumingConservativeColleaguesBenefit Of The DoubtFudge Author:Barack Obama

“It is absurd for anyone to think that Soviet "Marxism" is a correct application of the thought of Karl Marx. No doubt Soviet propaganda represented it this way. But who believes Soviet propaganda? It is remarkable (but maybe not so remarkable after all, when you consider their motives) that apologists for capitalism, who would not accept Soviet propaganda on any other point, are eager to agree with it on this point.” ThinkingWayBelieveAcceptingDoubtCapitalismAgreeAbsurdPropagandaMotiveNo DoubtRemarkableApplicationSovietMarxismSoviet Propaganda Author:Allen W.
