What's The Sense Subject Of "Still Calling For Belief"?

I thought that I ought to reject as downright false all opinions which I could imagine to be in the least degree open to doubt - my purpose being to discover whether, after doing so, there might not remain, as still calling for belief, something entirely indubitable.


I'm not sure If the sense subject of still calling for Belief is "something" entirely indubitable or "(after) doing so"?
