skepticism

my mom went for some food cum health talk today
and she came back with alot of new/newly repackaged info
which, being the good mother she is, had to be shared
of course it made for good dinner conversation
but i soon found myself disagreeing with the stuff she was saying
not that they are untrue per se, more like its not possible to do it
and i realised what a skeptic i have become [not a good thought]
and of course i started wondering why..

and i think it's partly due to the nature and society module!
watching all those videos have made me realise life isnt that simple
and helped breed this sense of skepticism about all adverts and such
not a totally bad thing but it ain't good either

and thinking further..
i realised i also have been becoming more skeptical towards God/the faith
perhaps its growing up and the proactive thinking
not a bad thing but that isnt a good thing either
sometimes i really wish for a childlike faith again

*edit*
[as there has been some activity on my tagboard, i decided to add on to this post]

its so easy to be skeptical. it really is.
perhaps education compounds the problem
but i guess as people we have too little faith sometimes

and as i have been reminded, it's as crucial to seek answers for the questions
questions only of value if they serve as catalysts for answers
apologetics [christian jargon] or not, formal or casual discussions
its the process of searching when truths are uncovered
