peer agreement (net): -1| perhaps no one can be a skeptic in time and a believer in eternity. A version Explanation: In time: A particular period or part of duration, whether past, present, or future; a point or portion of duration; as, the time was, or has been; the time is, or will be. =有时 一个人不可能一面持怀疑态度，一面又宣称自己是一如既往( 或始终如一)的信徒/信仰者 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 26 mins (2004-08-11 23:23:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 也就是说， 一面持怀疑态度，一面又宣称自己是一如既往的信徒/信仰者，这两种说法是矛盾的。 一面（对基督教）持怀疑态度，一面又宣称自己是永不动摇（恒久不变）地信仰基督教，这种说法是不成立、站不住脚的。 所以，看看这个版本怎样： 没有人能够一边不时地对基督教持怀疑态度， 一边又宣称自己是基督教的永恒的信徒。 |

| perhaps no one can be a skeptic in time and a believer in eternity. 或许无人能够既怀疑现世又信仰永恒(true philosophy) Explanation: This is a complete negation !!! Keep in mind "the ideas and practices of Judaism and of Christianity are, for purposes of historical analysis, products of human culture in historic time.", comparing "in historic time" with "in time" |
