Kierkegaard vs. Aquinas
Aquinas
Faith
Just because you don't understand something, doesn't mean it's not true.

"..the theologian receives his principles as revealed and considers the objects with which he deals as revealed and considers the objects with which he deals as revealed or deducible from what is revealed.." (313).
-
Reason
-
-
"...the philosopher apprehends his principles by reason alone and considers the objects with which he deals, not as revealed but as apprehensible and apprehended by the natural light of reason.." (313).

Kierkegaard

Faith is singular, absurd, and incomprehensible.
-
"...faith must be made continually on the strength of the absurd, though in such a way, be it noted, that one does not lose finitude but gains it all of a piece."
Reason
"Philosophy cannot and should not give us an account of faith, but should understand itself and know just what it has indeed to offer, without taking anything away..."
