Is belief/non-belief a morally culpable state?

Which this is relative to the OP question of moral obligation to investigate truth. Darwinian theory of evolution can only be "true" in a universe where absolute truth that's knowable doesn't actually exist. To admit that absolute truth (or even truth in general) is knowable, even if not known absolutely; is to ultimately concede to the reality of intelligent design. As truth actually can not exist in a random universe.A very good example of what you said is the belief in the Theory of Evolution. Here we have a bunch of scientists who have put together this theory and the world (not really adept in biology and genetics) are forced to believe the theory (through it being taught in science classes at schools). Thank goodness there are scientists who are now coming forward and exposing the holes in the Theory of Evolution.
