And now we can start worrying about what Faith is -- or what constitutes "reasonably". That sounds reasonable. :) No doubt we are inclined to consult human standards of reasonableness when evaluating theology, but I have come to think that the key is always on what each of us calls the starting point. I.e., what are our presuppositions?

Sounds like some of my posts didn't just go over your head, FK: now you consider our individual a priori acceptance of a starting kernel of faith, from which all other musings become "official truth," rather than saying that somehow our faith is simply "downloaded" from God?
