The Third Reich and the G.D.R. inculcated in him a lifelong doubt of ideologies — but now, nearing 90, the artist doubts even his own doubtfulness, and he seems less confident than his many admirers of what "Birkenau" achieves.

By 1995, enough evidence of the doubtfulness of psychoanalysis's scientific credentials and enough questions about Freud's character had accumulated to enable the revisionists to force the postponement of a major exhibition devoted to Freud at the Library of Congress, on the ground that the show presented psychoanalysis in too favorable a light.

"We have nothing pressing," the North said in rejecting more summitry, "and have no intention to sit on the table with the tricky U.S." What hasn't changed is the North's threat to U.S. national security — or the doubtfulness that it would ever abandon its nuclear program, which provides the protection it seeks and the global legitimacy it craves.

Ethan Gutmann, a journalist reporting on China since the early 1990s, has attempted to explain this apparent dearth of public sympathy for Falun Gong as stemming, in part, from the group's shortcomings in public relations. Unlike the democracy activists or Tibetans, who have found a comfortable place in Western perceptions, "Falun Gong marched to a distinctly Chinese drum", Gutmann writes. Moreover, practitioners' attempts at getting their message across carried some of the uncouthness of Communist party culture, including a perception that practitioners tended to exaggerate, create "torture tableaux straight out of a Cultural Revolution opera", or "spout slogans rather than facts". This is coupled with a general doubtfulness in the West of persecuted refugees.

" Written in a vernacular style reminiscent of a tale by Uncle Remus, Knight expresses the doubtfulness of black autonomy and white motives, for "Knight[sees] American as a prison where, no matter how benevolent a warden wishes to be, his gestures remain part of what locks his charges in." Knight's true prison, then, is the ways in which the Law, controlled by white America, imprisons black bodies and black voices, regardless of their presumed physical freedom. Knight's poem, ″A WASP Woman Visits a Black Junkie in Prison″ shows how humans must only find a common interest to make a connection, in this case, both the black man and white woman have children. According to Premo, the "encounter leaves the man touched and softened by the woman, as are many of Knight's male speakers.

Maimonides argued that executing an accused criminal on anything less than absolute certainty would progressively lead to convictions merely "according to the judge's caprice" and was expounding on both Exodus 23:7 ("the innocent and righteous slay thou not") and an Islamic text, [Jami'] of at-Tirmidhi. [Jami'] of at- Tirmidhi quotes Muhammad as saying, "Avoid legal punishments as far as possible, and if there are any doubts in the case then use them, for it is better for a judge to err towards leniency than towards punishment". Another similar expression reads, "Invoke doubtfulness in evidence during prosecution to avoid legal punishments".Exegesis of Sunan at-Tirmidhi - the Book of Punishments , Abu 'Isa Muhammad ibn 'Isa at-Tirmidhi, 884 C.E. Other statements, some even older, which seem to express similar sentiments have been compiled by Volokh.

Private confession of sins to a priest, followed by absolution, has always been provided for in the Book of Common Prayer. In the Communion Service of the 1662 English Prayer Book, for example, we read: > And because it is requisite, that no man should come to the holy Communion, > but with a full trust in God’s mercy, and with a quiet conscience; > therefore, if there be any of you, who by this means [that is, by personal > confession of sins] cannot quiet his own conscience herein, but requireth > further comfort or counsel; let him come to me, or to some other discreet > and learned Minister of God’s Word, and open his grief; that by the ministry > of God’s holy Word he may receive the benefit of absolution, together with > ghostly counsel and advice, to the quieting of his conscience, and avoiding > of all scruple and doubtfulness.1662 BCP: The Order for the Administration > of the Lord's Supper, or Holy Communion, p. 8 of 17.
