This definition can be broken down and translated.
1) (An attitude of doubt), I see this as the way you feel and react to something you may not believe as true.
2) (A disposition to incredulity), this I translate as qualities of mind and character to be unable to believe something.
3) (in general or toward a particular object), I see this as a way to approach all issues.
In conclusion we can add it all together and we get.
Skepticism: The way you feel and react to something you may not believe as true, or qualities of mind and character to be unable to believe, as a way to approach all issues.
By defining the word skepticism, I do not intend for one to instantly attempt to discredit new information, I mean to read or listen "with an open mind" from as many sources (good or bad as they may be) and form a decision based upon YOUR gathered data.
It is THAT simple....
