I so enjoy the philosophical conversations I have with son. He is a deep thinker and reads for pleasure blogs on rationalism. I asked him today whether or not rationalism and faith are mutually exclusive. Absolutely not, he replied. There is no reason they cannot coexist. But you do understand, dont you, that rationalism depends on human evidence and logic, and faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen? Mom, both politics and religion are mind killers only if people allow themselves to be swept up in emotion without thinking things through critically. Its the approach here that matters. These are the discussions we have about life as we drive around about our daily lives. I hope these talks never end.
