This is not meant to endorse faith that refuses to dialogue with reality. Reality presents questions to faith. If the believer refuses to ask them, faith becomes clogged by dogmatism and denial. Simply to assert religious dogma in the face of real life can isolate one from God and the Holy Spirit. What many people call faith is nothing but a stubborn refusal to look at reality.
Faith is the opposite of refusal.
It is the absolute willingness to look at reality in the belief that God can still be found, no matter what happens or what appears. God need not be protected from truth. If he is God, all truth will ultimately lead to him. The seed of faith must accept life's questions as a way of growing. Otherwise, a charade of faith is created which is not faith at all.
