The fall back position on those that can not / will not use reason.

Nope...It's the main and fall back position for those who trust in and believe God...

Pro_3:5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Pro 23:4 Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.

Isa 5:21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!

1Co 3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.
1Co 3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
1Co 3:20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
1Co 3:21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;

God says to do just the opposite of what you claim...Using your own or your religion's reasoning trying to understand the spiritual things of God is a serious no no...

Rom 2:16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

Joh_12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

Heb 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

When you get to the final judgment, God is going to open the books (of the bible) and you are going to be judged out of those books...

If your beliefs and life don't line up with what's written in the books such as things like Mary is our co-redeemer, etc.,,,,,well you know the rest...

Non Catholics try to go by the books of the bible...Do some get it wrong a little bit??? Sure they do...But they are light years closer to the truth of God and the scriptures than anything your religion teaches...

Just curious, what are those books made of? Paper, metal, stone? They must be pretty darned big. Lots of trees.

And who is writing this stuff down? And if God is omniscient, why does he have to write this stuff down?
