Using Reason To Back Up Faith

Each of us are beings created by God. He made us from dust. But, we are beings with a free will and we have free minds as well. We use reason to explain things in life. Some of them we understand, others we don't. Now, it is completely up to each and every one of us to choose what to do with our reasoning powers. We can use them for the purpose of evil and pagan things. We can use them to give glory to man as an ultimate being. Or we can use our reasoning to help back up our faith.
By using our Reasoning, we can give glory to God. When we use our reasoning, I think that it point towards us being intellegent creatures created by an even more powerful being. So, instead of using our reasoning to point towards evolution, or pantheism, I think that we can use our reasoning to point out that we are creatures of magnificent design. And further more, that we have a great Designer that created us the way that we are. Let us use our reason to point that fact out instead of denying it. This is just my personal opinion on what our reason should be used for. Plus, I prefer the idea of being a created person over the idea that our ancestors were monkeys that eventually "Evolved" into the beautiful being that walk the earth tody, but that's just me.




I commented on Seth's "Reconciling God and Evil"
