Few men speak humbly of humility, chastely of chastity, skeptically of skepticism.
The heart must be kept tender and pliable; otherwise agnosticism converts to skepticism. In such a case, the value of apologetics is voided, for apologetics is aimed at persuading doubters, not at refuting the defiant. He who demands a kind of proof that the nature of the case renders impossible, is determined that no possible evidence shall convince him.

The path of sound credence is through the thick forest of skepticism.
Skepticism, riddling the faith of yesterday, prepared the way for the faith of tomorrow.
Skepticism is slow suicide.
