I'm not sure it's a case of "stopping doubt." I don't feel that I'm resisting. The truth is I go about my day, do my work, feed my family, play some games online when I have time, and so on. Then I come here to see if anyone's saying anything interesting enough for me to merit sharpening my linguistic teeth. It's a hobby.
At no point in this, and with exposure to any of the religious members' ideas here, do I feel internal or cognitive struggle. Generally speaking, I do have great struggle comprehending reality, the nature of mind, and the Universe, and I'm perfectly willing to accept the possibility of a deity or even something I would call God. I'd say I'm relatively fertile soil for a really compelling religious idea-- but so far, it just seems like people making stuff up, and I can do that all on my own.
