The path to truth is paved with a bunch of hard questions

One of the ways religion stunts a person’s spiritual development is scaring them away from asking questions. Too often, people who “question things” are viewed as agitators, or those who lack faith. Socrates wrote, “One good question can be more instructive than a thousand answers.” Pay attention to the questions that linger in your gut, especially those that relate to things you’ve been told should never be questioned. You won’t get far into spiritual truth without being a questioner. You won’t find true peace, freedom, and well-being without vigorously pressing into the questions you carry deep inside of you.
