HE didn't die so we can quit thinking. Besides being Scriptural, the idea stands to reason. You have to know, at least to some degree, that which in you're putting your faith.

Just curious, but does this mean you're a fan or familiar with "Stand To Reason"
(www.str.org)?
(please don't be offended if you check them out...I do believe their foundational
belief would be Reform Theology...I presume an "Aquinasfan" would most
likely at least lean to Roman Catholicism.)

Well, I got that point due to a bit of inter-faith cross-pollination.
IIRC, it was from Jewish commentator Dennis Prager quoting Catholic writer
Chesterton to the effect that (my imperfect quote) that "when people stop
believing in religion, they don't believe in nothing".
Just for myself (and even more after 9-11 and learning more about Islam and some
other religions/moral-systems)...Christianity make more emotive AND intellectual sense to
me that just about anything.
