Since ages we have been witness to an incessant face-off between faith and logic. Many enlightenments exposed flaws in blind faith and ushered in an era of rationality, and logic became the dominant paradigm.
Metaphysics walks a tightrope between rationality and faith and it is here that the dissension between the two is sometimes at its peak.
But at a certain point they have to forsake logic due to its inherent limitations and enter a realm where tools of logic are no longer applicable and things have to be taken on faith.
What we sense could be known and expressed; but not what we do not. Every individual has to himself experience this extra-sensual Absolute premise that we call God.
The beauty of faith; the starkness of rationality and the struggle to be sure you are not leaning on either side for your own convenience is the challenge.
