[[Image:Saint Thomas Aquinas.jpg|right|thumb|St. [[Thomas Aquinas]] took the position that [[faith]] and [[reason]] are compatible. ]]

'''Faith and Reason''' have each been considered to be sources of justification for religious belief. It has been a matter of much interest to [[Philosophy|philosophers]] and [[Theology|theologians]] how the two are related. Some hold that there can be no conflict between the two, while others maintain that faith and reason can be in genuine conflict, even [[contradiction]] when considering certain propositions or methodologies. The historical development of thought on the interrelation of religious faith and reason begins with Classical Greek conceptions of mind and religious mythology, continues through the medieval Christian theologians, the rise of modern science in the early post-Renaissance period, and the philosophical reformulation of the issue as one of ‘''science versus religion''’ in the twentieth and twenty-first century.
