Özet
The most important characteristic of human that separates him from an animal, is his intellect. What makes intellect so honored is its capacity to grasp what lies beyond the tangible world, i.e. metaphysics. Human being has the capability of accessing the fact that every created has a creator and originator. Focusing this capability, the revelation by referring to the outside world and the evidences it contains triggers this human capacity, which finally ends up with faith. As this procedure operates via reason, it is hardly possible to call this faith as dogmatic submission. Rather it is quite the opposite. It rests on reason and contemplation, enabling man do uncover both the content of revelation and physical world.
