Opis

Today's man is marked by the complexity of reconciling reason and faith, living surrounded by new knowledge and techniques. At every moment he is hit with a large amount of information - which does not mean training - and novelties, which do not allow him time to reflect and deepen his religious experiences, so he lives perplexed before so many systems that surround him, which if on the one hand allow him the comfort and the illusion of a goddess reason, on the other hand, do not stimulate him to reflect on his nature, his end, his faith, God and all the aspects that compose him. I firmly believe that Pascal's philosophical understanding helps the human being of the 21st century to better understand this very necessary relationship that must exist between reason and faith, showing that the two are not enemies, but can walk together, helping us in the development of our human life. I wish you all a good reading!
