  1. I as not there for discussion because i had a death in the family but i believe you can find knowledge in doubt. Wether the knowledge you attain is relevant to what you are doubting or to growing one's perspective can vary. I think you find that knowledge in doubt when you are seeking truth. Not neccessarily proof, but truth that gives you a meaning which brings you peace.

    I believe in order to find knowledge you must seek, and in order to seek there must be questions involved. i think question and doubt can sometimes run hand in hand, in that somethings you are doubtful on therefore you ask questions in order to FIND an answer to your doubting. i think what isnt beneficial to the gaining of knowledge is doubting without a cause or concern to even find an answer.
