faith

I have already written my opinion on these empty statements. If something is ingrained in us, it is not a guarantee that it is true. On the contrary, it is a basis for suspicion that it is simply the result of accidental evolution. The desire and inclination to speak slander is also ingrained in us. By the way, this is precisely the essence of an emotion, and therefore such a statement is inconsistent with the claim that it is not an emotion. Perhaps they mean to say that faith is a product of intuition, and I can of course agree with that and have even written and spoken about it quite a bit. Indeed, reason polishes intuitions, I agree with that too. But it also examines them critically and changes and replaces them if necessary. Furthermore, this description is true for all knowledge we have, not just faith. Science in its various fields is also based on intuitions. Therefore, I do not agree that faith is not reason (although it is of course not an emotion, and so on). Intuition is the basis of reason. In the margins of my remarks, I will add that this ‘method’ is prevalent mainly in places that do not know how and do not want to deal with arguments and difficulties, and then they issue statements that faith is above reason, etc., etc., and how important it is to stick to it despite the difficulties and not to pay attention to them because they are the advice of the instinct. Nonsense in the juice.
