Craig defends the coexistence of faith and reason, arguing that belief in God is not irrational but supported by logical arguments like the cosmological and moral cases. Sinnott-Armstrong challenges this, suggesting faith often fills gaps where reason and evidence fall short. He cautions against accepting beliefs without sufficient evidence, even if they provide comfort or meaning. The debate underscores the tension between faith as trust and reason as critical evaluation.
