I really like this methodology and I think that it should apply to all types of questions not just religious ones. It should also
apply to oneself as much as anyone else. As no one has a monopoly on wisdom one will be inevitably be wrong about some
things. So learning to be patient with those who think differently to oneself and accepting one is only fallible are strengths
rather than weaknesses towards acquiring greater understanding. If ones world view is grounded in absolute certainty then
one cannot learn anything new. Uncertainty is therefore more desirable and beneficial from an epistemological perspective
