The novel, Life of Pi suggests that despite offering contradictory approaches to life, reason and faith can co-exist. Critically discuss the extent to which you agree with the above statement

The assertion is quite true.

Because to have Faith simply means to believe in the existence of entities, and minds and beings that we cannot see but whose activities have left a lot of evidence to suggest that suggests the actually exist.

For example, there is no religion that does not have a god. In Christianity, we have God, the Almighty, also known as the Uncreated Creator.

In Islam, there is Allah, in Hindu, it's Buddha.

At least one of these religions offer as a way to explain the existence of the Universe and the existence of a God who created all things.

So when we try to justify a position, regardless of whether it is spiritual or not, "reasoning" is already involved.

Besides, it doesn't make much sense to "blindly" practice religion that is based on faith alone from a God who created the entire universe (man inclusive) as well as the ability to reason.

Therefore, reason and faith do not only co-exist, but have to co-exist.

Cheers!
