Faith as the power of reason. - 03-07-04

Intuition, reason, sense experience, revelation and authority; these are the ways through which we come to understand things. Faith is not the opposite of reason, it is merely the extent to which you believe your own understandings.
It's a simple enough epistemological view. It makes a lot of sense because it's not posing one source of knowledge against another, instead it uses faith and skepticism as opposites. A faithful person believes what they know to be true, a skeptical person believes what they know to be false or at least insufficient. What do you think?
