The Relation Between Faith and Reason. Two Wings of the Human Spirit

Summary/Abstract: The relation between faith and reason is one of man’s deepest existential concerns, as everyone seeks in some way to attain certainty about the meaning of one’s life, based on the truth about oneself. John Paul II and Edith Stein are in the mainstream of this quest since both take up reflection on the human spirit which ‘‘rises on two wings’’ – faith and reason, in the attempt to know the truth, not partial but absolute, that takes into account the truth of particular sciences, philosophical truth and religious truth, so as to show the value of seeking the truth as such. Faith and reason start from different points of reference and use different methods of cognition, but they can enrich each other because these two distinct orders ultimately lead to a knowledge of God – the creator of all truth.
