Religion - Logic or Faith

Re: Religion - Logic or Faith

Coming back to the topic about dogma and its explanation ... philosophy ... yes it can explain it. Including logic philosophy contains something called metaphysics and other useful things like explanation by analogy and so on. In logic terms we cannot conclude that since x and y lead z that a and b must lead to z because a and b are similar to x and y. We will say undefined.

The Qur'an is filled with explanation by analogy such as in the case with the Attributes of God. As before though we understand things better like that it is not something constrained in the domain of logic.

Logic also breaks down when we talk about infinite or infinitesimal ... results are undefined

Logic also breaks down with circularity ... though circularity cannot prove anything logically it does help to define knowns ... those knowns that are not subject to logic such as existence.

I exist therefore I am or I am therefore I exist .... It does not matter I am and I exist no logic need by applied here.

As you can see faith is broader than logic.
