Dr. Randall Smith on Using Our Intellect to Enhance Our Faith

"A good friend was bemoaning the other day that, after a wonderful presentation by the assistant pastor of her parish on the Theology of the Body, she heard a fellow parishioners say: 'I didn’t know I'd have to put my thinking cap on in church.' A beautiful talk, on a substantive issue, and all this guy can say is: 'Too much thinking.'"

In a recent commentary, Dr. Randall Smith (associate professor of theology at the University of St. Thomas, Houston) wrote about the importance of Catholics using their intellects to increase their understanding of their faith.
