It is not disbelief that is dangerous to our society; it is belief

Summary

This quote suggests that it is not the act of questioning or doubting that poses a threat to society, but rather blind or extreme belief. Beliefs, when taken to the extreme and followed blindly can lead to the acceptance of harmful ideologies or actions. While disbelief can encourage critical thinking and scrutiny, unchecked belief can result in the rejection of differing perspectives, intolerance, and even violence. Therefore, the danger lies not in skepticism, but in the unquestioning nature of beliefs.
