| | Reason - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The concept of reason is connected to language, as reflected in the meanings of the Greek word "logos", later to be translated by Latin "ratio" and then French "raison", from which the English word is derived. | | | Reason comprises conception, judgment, reasoning, and the intuitional faculty. | | | The reason which gives a priori principles Kant calls "Pure Reason" (as in his |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Reason |
| | But in its narrower meaning reason is man's differentia, at once his necessity and his privilege; that by which he is "a little less than the angels", and that by which he excels the brutes. | | | In its general sense, therefore, reason may be attributed to God, and an angel may be called rational. | | | The same laws of thought rule the philosopher's reasoning and the peasant's, but the latter's conclusion will only be fairly certain when its matter comes within his usual cognizance. |

| | Faith and Reason [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] |
| | As such, "faith cures reason, which has been wounded by sin." So, while the laws of works are for the most part prohibitions against certain sins, the laws of faith tend to be positive duties, such as the injunctions to love one's enemies and to carry one's cross daily. | | | Kant's claim that theoretical reason was unable to grasp truths about God effectively continued the contraction of the authority of scienta in matters of faith that had been occurring since the late medieval period. | | | But when reason confronts what is incomprehensible, it remains unshaken since it is guided by faith's affirmation of the truth of its own incomprehensible claims. |

| | Lessons From the Prophet and the Imams of Ahlul-Bayt |
| | It is through reason and understanding that God has completed evidence of proof (in respect of Himself and His religion) for mankind. | | | And whoever is deprived of reason by God, can never be firm and steady in God consciousness in a way as to enable him to realize the truth of God in his own heart. | | | Secondly they also understood that those who do not seek guidance and reason from God, are the people who are not afraid of God's (punishments) at all. |

| | Medieval Theories of Practical Reason |
| | The notion of medieval practical reason can be investigated in two ways: 1) in light of the distinction between practical and theoretical sciences in the writings of the medieval university masters in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries; 2) in comparison to the modern understanding of practical reason as described by Immanuel Kant. | | | Therefore the first principle in practical reason is that which is based on the nature of the good which is: the good is that which all things seek. | | | These principles are obviously not mutually exclusive, ‘but the dictate of reason to pursue good is rationally and necessarily derived from the command to obey God.’ Synderesis is the ability of reason that never errs in the recognition of those universal rules of moral action, since a denial of their universal validity contravenes human reason. |

| | Objectivism and Thomas Jefferson: Reason-1 |
| | In declaring reason as man's only absolute, Rand was making the point that it is through reason that man makes progress in knowledge and understanding, not through feelings or the authority of religious revelation or the pronouncements of any other kind of authority. | | | Because of the easy fallibility of reasoning, Jefferson had little difficulty putting his own conclusions aside when confronted by the reasoning of others, knowing that his own reason was not an entirely reliable resource, and that no intelligent person should rely upon it absolutely. | | | The true worth of reason is made manifest in collective activities, i.e., when the reason of one person is tested against the reason of another. |

| | The enthronement of reason means the enthronement of man who becomes his own lawgiver. | | | The three main extra-rational activities in modern life are religion, war, and love; all these are extra-rational, but love is not anti-rational, that is to say, a reasonable man may reasonably rejoice in its existence. | | | One of the prerogatives by which man is eminently distinguished from all other living beings inhabiting this globe of earth, consists in the gift of reason. |

| | That is, Reason is our capacity not only to know the passing impressions we get from the world, but also to know its necessity. | | | This concept of Reason is reflected in Marx and Engels’ understanding of history. | | | In Hegel's system, Reason is the unity of Consciousness-as-such and Self-Conciousness (and so negates itself as the Theoretical Spirit and the Practical Spirit) and becomes Objective Spirit – all the phenomena of history, politics, culture and so on – all, according to Hegel, the work of Reason. |

Bush. | | | God knows, we've spent the last four years trying the complete opposite.” |
