Why 'Rational faith' Is An Oxymoron
#39
RE: Why 'Rational faith' Is An Oxymoron
I guess a better way for me to put it would be, it is only human to have irrational thoughts/faith/etc. Part of our current ways of logic and understanding up to this point in our history has been a mixture of irrationality and rational faith at some point or another. (Please know, I'm not using the term "Faith" in regards to Religion on my examples)...

True evidence has helped us get closer to the bottom line facts of something, but there are times when a logical faith was in place first that got us to the evidence that only sealed the deal in making it a fact. I do not believe that faith in the beginning to be a bad thing.........Just so as long as the truth was found in the end......Smile
Intelligence is the only true moral guide...
