Faith and Reason What does it really mean to have faith? Is all faith really "blind faith" or is there more to it than that? When we see people of strong faith, do we ask them about their journey? How can prayer helps us acquire Faith? Can praying the Rosary strengthen our faith? Is faith and belief in God an intellectual and academic conclusion that truly thoughtful people can arrive at? "Faith and Reason are like two wings on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of truth; and God has placed in the human heart a desire to know the truth--in a word, to know himself--so that, by knowing and loving God, men and women may also come to the fullness of truth about themselves." The above quote is from the Papal Encyclical, Fides Et Ratio, by Pope John Paul II. To learn more we encourage you to read the entire encyclical below.
