God and synthetic thinking

In Two Carts and a Balloon you write that:
"In a certain sense, faith in G-d constitutes a more fundamental level than the modernist-postmodernist level, and in another sense it is secondary to it. On the one hand, faith in G-d is possible only when there is a willingness to believe in things in general (a synthetic, modernist position). On the other hand, faith in synthetic abilities is based on the foundation of a correlative factor, namely G-d. In Talmudic terms, it can be said that these two 'come as one.'"
Could the rabbi explain a little more about the nature of the hierarchy between the two (since it seems to me that the wording of "come together" does not provide a sufficient explanation of the relationship between the two, as well as the Talmudic issue)?
