Feldman's text is a chapter from the book 'Philosophers without Gods: Meditations on Atheism and the Secular Life', edited by Louise M. Antony. Feldman's is interested mainly in the possibility of rational disagreement -- religion is only an example. He argues that rational disagreement is impossible. If our epistemic continue to draw conclusions different from ours even after thoroughgoing discussion, we should give up our beliefs and suspend judgement instead.
