The most important obstacle in the way of rational life and correct religiosity is the false perception that exists about the imperfection of reason and takes away from individuals the will and courage necessary to rely on human wisdom and disarms them against promoters of superstitions.
To escape from this trap, we must note that the only criterion that can be the foundation and basis for distinguishing right from wrong is human reason and conscience, and if we consider it imperfect and unreliable, nothing, including subjects like God and His messengers, will be examinable and believable.
Even those who speak of the imperfection of reason bring rational arguments to show the correctness of their claim and consider the abundance of errors in human thoughts as evidence of the unreliability of reason; unaware that the existence of these mistakes is evidence of the necessity to rely better and more on reason.
What is imperfect and limited is our knowledge, and the only solution for obtaining correct information is the use of human wisdom to listen to different words and choose the best ones and identify reliable sources of knowledge and follow what reason deems necessary to follow.
