Many philosophers have addressed the issue of faith. They We have delivered very different thoughts, but express personal views and not a neutral idea on the subject.
Critical Perspective: The atheist philosopher Theodor Löbsack says: "Faith is based on preconceptions and dismisses the achievements of science that contradict them. Therefore, ultimately, faith is the death of science. "Kant speaks similarly:" I had to put science aside to make room for faith. "This concept unscriptural Kant made the inspirer of many schools of philosophy totally opposed to faith. In wall of the new Graduate School of Norf near Neuss (Germany), reads: "Do not trust the one whose God is in heaven." This is the ultimate consequence that leads critical reason.
positive Viewpoint: Isaac Newton, one of the greatest scientists of all time, said: "Anyone who thinks just does not believe in God, one who thinks a lot can only believe in God." The famous philosopher and mathematician Blaise Pascal expresses a similar belief: "As all things speak of God to those who know him and seek him, to those who love him, even all things hide in the eyes of those who do not seek and do not know. "
These two opposing views clearly show that faith does not depend on the uncertainty or ignorance, but only personal biases. These are not philosophical arguments that have the power to change the a priori, but only the approach to Jesus Christ, approach the Bible calls conversion. To the unconverted, the issues of faith are foolishness (1 Cor 1:18) and are unable to understand (1 Cor 2:14). He who has received Jesus Christ is led into all truth (Jn 16:13), faith based on a strong foundation (1 Cor 3:11) and is also what is more certain:
"Having faith is being sure of what we hope is to be convinced the reality of what is not seen "(Heb 11:1).
