How about you actually read the posts before making really ...... Oh never mind. See ya.
Consider what the Seventh Day Adventists -- who are not known as slackers when it comes to Scriptural strictness -- have to say about faith and reason and the passage from Isaiah that I cited:
Use of reason
Some today—both Christians and non-Christians—place faith and reason in opposition to one another. But this is not the biblical view. Isaiah 1:18 declares, “Come now, and let us reason together,' says the Lord." Unless we reason as we read, we will fail to understand what we're reading. A passage from Nehemiah shows that the need to engage the Word with our intellect is nothing new.
After 70 years of captivity in Babylon, many of the brave souls who returned to rebuild Jerusalem had not heard or read the Scriptures. So a group of priests "read from the Book of the Law of God, making it clear and giving the meaning so that the people could understand what was being read" (Nehemiah 8:8; emphasis added). Paul exhorted Timothy to "be diligent, . . . accurately handling the word of truth" (2 Timothy 2:15,NASB). Note that "accurately handling the word of truth" requires diligence, and diligence includes careful reasoning.
And if one follows the link and reads the rest of the web page, it is clear that Adventists -- yes, even Adventists -- are like Catholics in urging that reading Scripture correctly requires attention to cultural and historical context, the logical context, reason, perspective, and a balancing of evidence.
