You should make decisions purely on reason and nothing else is what the vocal godless are saying.
Blair said:
"I can't prove that religious faith offers something more than humanism," he said. "But I believe profoundly that it does."
In the United States, where talk of God and church can sometimes seem a prerequisite to getting elected, these open expressions of belief would not be unusual; in secular Europe, where religiosity tends to be viewed with suspicion, Blair said he kept his belief long under wraps for fear of being dismissed as "a nutter."
"One of the oddest questions I get asked in interviews, and I get asked a lot of questions, is: Is faith important to your politics? It's like asking someone whether their health is important to them or their family. If you are someone 'of faith,' it is the focal point of belief in your life. There is no conceivable way that it wouldn't affect your politics," Blair said.
Reason can fail, faith never does. Reason is like noses, everyone has one, everyone had an opinion and everyone thinks they are right. So, we try to reach consensus. That's worse. Committee based government. So we try to govern by polls. reason alone is an uncertain way to try to govern. We need to pray, to the true and living God. He who made all this anyway.
Thankfully Tony Blair and George Bush are men of prayer. God give us more men like them.
I wish George Bush could run for another term.
