    One need only witness how capable humans are of both deceiving and being deceived to know the answer to that question.

    It is better to be skeptical of all when it comes to anyone telling you how to live your life and for what purpose. It is also better to be skeptical of all logical information you come across if you want to understand what is real and what isn't. Skepticism only comes in human form and if a human be a skeptic, then that human is skeptical of what other humans say. This is extremely important in these trying times of absolute, and irreparable idiocy.

    You should be skeptical of all religions. If you are truly skeptical and have a basic understanding of reality then you will end up an atheist.

  • When you say ''just all but one'' you're being basically a fundie at this point. Almost all religious people, especially the fundies, are deeply skeptical about all religions save their own, so it doesn't make you any different from them.

    No religion as I know of speak the truth. They all deserve equal amount of skepticism. All their tall claims can be taken with a pinch of salt.

    it is best to examine skepticism

    1. The ancient school of Pyrrho of Elis that stressed the uncertainty of our beliefs in order to oppose dogmatism.

    2. The doctrine that absolute knowledge is impossible, either in a particular domain or in general.

    3. A methodology based on an assumption of doubt with the aim of acquiring approximate or relative certainty.

    Only if you have no reason to be skeptical about it.

    You must be skeptical of all. Otherwise, how will you know that truth when you find it?

    No because it's like being a jack of all trades and master of none
