But is it possible for logic, rationality and facts to exist outside of and be uninfluenced by faith? Does this not itself require a leap of faith?

[/ QUOTE ]

You keep saying this and I just don't understand your point. I believe that what I see and hear and feel are real.

The point is that the interpretation of facts is influenced by faith. The people's perception of reality is influenced by their faith and presuppositions. This doesn't necessarily mean that everything is relative, just that our perception of the world is relative. Nor does is mean everything is up for dispute.


One person looks at the world around him and believes there's a God.

Another person looks at the same world and determines there is no God.

That one believes it's possible to logically and rationally interpret facts unencumbered by the influence of faith and presuppositions requires a leap of faith.
