Faith and Reason - Link Dump
I have discussed this topic at length in many other posts, but have never gathered the material into one place. Here are some worthy links, plus my thoughts.
Links on faith and reason:
- Faith and Reason: Friends or Foes? (Leader U)
Both Tertullian and Augustine felt that we should use reason to come to conclusions about faith - that is, though we can't prove an article of faith, we can determine sources that are trustworthy, and then employ and test their ideas in practice. In addition, Augustine said that reason, unaided by faith, is at best, incomplete, and that faith actually brings further knowledge, understanding, and clarity to reason. As I like to say -"Before faith comes, reason is king. After faith comes, reason is servant." - Faith and Reason (Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
- Faith and Reason: Competitors or Collaborators? (Villanova University)
- On Faith and Reason With Special Reference Toward the Task of Postmodern Apologetics and the Issue of Sensism (Minnesota Apologetics Project)
- FIDES ET RATIO (Faith and Reason) Pope John Paul II
- The Weslyan Quadrangle III - Scripture and Reason (TwoOrThree.net)
- The Atheist's Caricature of Faith (TwoOrThree.net)
