REASON AND REVELATION

***

Sets soul on God — Why?

Reason and revelation

Reach same conclusions

***

NOTE: What made Dante set his soul on God? Dante answers that both reason and revelation did that. Reason refers to philosophical arguments, and revelation refers to sacred Scripture. Many people believe that both reason and revelation lead to the same conclusions. C.S. Lewis, the great defender of Christianity, believed this. So did Saint Thomas Aquinas, another great defender of Christianity.
