Quote from Gabfly1:
Cute answer. However, religion, by definition, requires the suspension of judgment, reason and critical thinking in favor of faith. If you were to employ judgment in matters of religion, then you would presume to know your god's will. And wouldn't that be akin to blasphemy? Lemmings follow. By all appearances, they do not think or exercise judgment. Nice try, though.![]()
reason is highly discouraged in christianity:
"Reason is the greatest enemy that faith has; it never comes to the aid of
spiritual things, but -- more frequently than not -- struggles against the
divine Word, treating with contempt all that emanates from God."
father of modern Protestant christianity, Martin Luther
