CheckoutFor Simone Weil, doubt was not the opposite of faith. It was the most faithful posture she could imagine: a willingness to suspend final answers for the sake of deepening her understanding, and therefore her reverence and love. It seemed to her that since Christ was the truth, there was no harm in asking questions. Any questions she asked would only lead her into deeper knowing. “Christ likes us to prefer truth to him,” she wrote. “Because before being Christ, he is truth. If one turns aside from him to go toward the truth, one will not go far before falling into his arms.”
