Faith is the antithesis of reason. Wouldn’t reason have told Peter when he tried walking on the sea to meet Jesus to turn around and head back to the boat. Or at least call out to the others on the boat for help? Nope, his faith demanded he call out to Jesus and thus was rescued.
Examples, courtesy of Mortimer Adler:Reason tells us that the cause of the Big Bang is, by definition, God. Faith defines the unknowable, the nature of the Creator.
