Jennifer Michael Hecht — A History of Doubt (January 8, 2009) by On Being Studios published on 2012-05-24T20:23:02Z Poet and historian Jennifer Michael Hecht says that as a scholar she always noticed the "shadow history" of doubt out of the corner of her eye. She shows how non-belief, skepticism, and doubt have paralleled and at times shaped the world's great religious and secular belief systems. She suggests that only in modern time has doubt been narrowly equated with a complete rejection of faith, or a broader sense of mystery.

I've also thought about what other ways people come together which can replace or are similar what religious gathering can feel like. 2016-04-08T10:46:38Z
