Real religion cannot be opposed to intellect.
Do not believe
that in religion you cannot trust your intellect. The force of our intellect
must support the foundations of every real faith.
— William Ellery
Channing
If God, the
object of our faith, is higher than our understanding, and if you do not
understand Him, it does not mean that you should not use your intellect trying
to understand Him.
— Fyodor Strakov
While ye have
light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things
spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.
— John 12:36
In order to understand the truth, you should not
suppress your intellect. On the contrary, you should purify your intellect,
exercise it, and intellectually try and test everything which we can possibly
put to the test.
