Some consider thinking and enquiry should never stop but be a continuous process.
When it comes to Religion, Beliefs and Faiths, would you consider investigation and revelation of fact and truth necessary before all other considerations ?
Illustrations or examples are appreciated in supporting your position from a Religious, Belief or Faith perspective. Ambiguity is seldom purposeful. Thank you.

ABRIDGED
Underlying tone: All disciplines search for Truth.
...– Consideration of empiricism and rationalization is necessity.
big bad..– Whilst consideration is needed, Faith is an important element that may alone suffice.
The 7.. – Schism of between Faith, Empiricism and rationalization.

Pax vobiscum
A significant part of the Scientific Age break-out from the Medieval world was pecasue of the search for fact before all else, even faith. Galileo is a case in point. We face a similar watershed in reproductive science cf abortion/stem cell.
These are two examples of where God continually challenges us to advance in faith w/ not against our brains.

I think so, yes, just because history has shown us that when we follow blindly there tends to be lots of war, killing, people being burned at the stake and so on.

i have found in life what one might hold as truth,someone else may view as fantasy.comments relating to religion have always been a heated one.the only thing that counts is the word of God and He said ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free;along with let them that have an ear hear.
