important role in the development of modern science

True
False

Question 10 3 / 3 pts

Which of the following is NOT a reason for viewing the relationship of
faith and reason as a dialogue?

In a debate, one person is always right and the other wrong, and

Since both originate from God, they should be considered alongside
one another

It is helpful because dialogue partners sharpen each other, whether
agreeing or disagreeing and always receiving the benefits of
clarification, etc.

Both disciplines can help each other by filling in the explanatory gaps.
