: I've been reading through several of the lively debates elsewhere on the board, and I was wondering:
: At what point does skepticism become cynicism?
I don't really see cynicism and skepticism related (nessasarily)...I
think skepticism is really just logic, and I don't think that need
affect interal emotions toward the world. I think thinking logically
and abstactly opens your mind to ideas and the world. Ideally it
leads you to find peace with the world rather than anger.
