Faith

Faith is greater than reason. Rand posits this which surprised me. Actually, she rejects it roundly. Though I am a staunch believer in the Higher Power, I still would not argue that faith is superior to reasoning. Nor, would I advocate that reason leads us to perfect believing, to logic, to right values and right living. We require both faith and reason to be be devout.

God is both a rationalist and a spiritualist concurrently. Superior faith is rational faith. All other, irrational faiths are fine, but the suggestion of conflicts between reason and faith is a straw man, untrue and immoderate, and Satan-centered.
