I believe this kind of questioning is not a sign of bad faith, but of
good faith. It shows a person takes faith seriously. For too many
people, faith is a kind of "auto-pilot" flight plan, but for
reflective people, faith is linked closely to wonder, which keeps them
open to the possibility that they're on the wrong path or heading to
the wrong destination. To put it another way, because of their
commitment to reach the right destination - a truly good life, with
good character, as a good neighbor, in harmony with the goodness of
God - they are willing to question the directions they got off the
internet when it appears there's a discrepancy between their map and
reality.

I wrote about this subject in some detail in a book called "The Search
for What Makes Sense: Finding Faith" (Zondervan, 2007). I describe
four stages of faith, and the passage from each stage to the next is
marked by new questions and a lack of satisfaction with old answers.
As one matures, one learns to live with questions and in fact live by
questions, in the context of a deep relationship with God, whom one
has discovered to be the greatest of all educators, leading us to
maturity through our questions.

Of course, there's an arrogant kind of questioning that's harmful to
the spiritual life. It involves an unwillingness to acknowledge
mystery and a hasty rejection of wisdom from others, including wisdom
from tradition. But there's also an arrogant unwillingness to ask
questions. It reflects a hyper-confidence that one already has it all
figured out, shrink wrapped, and packed in the drawer. With God, I
believe, mystery and wonder always remain, and awe always has the last
work.
