Faith and reason

From av_phile1 in pinoydvd:

"Nothing that I said downplays the importance of scientific or historical or medical researches and studies.  What I said was in matters of faith, they are unnecessary and irrelevant.  There's this saying:  to a believer, no proof is necessary." 

What the church teaches  is that there is no contradiction between faith and science, that one must consider both important, and that one must use one's head as well as one's heart. Faith requires everything of you, not just your belief.
