"Walk By Faith Not By Sight.."

Recently I received from a relative in Madurai, India, a little story about an American Indian boy being initiated into manhood by his father. The apparent moral of the story was:

"Just because you can't see God,
Doesn't mean He is not there.
"For we walk by faith, not by sight."

What, I must ask, is the purpose of having blind faith when we have been given eyes to see and a brain with which to think and reason? Blind faith can lead you astray whereas eyes and reasoning prevent you from believing in falsehoods. This is such simple logic that I find it hard to believe that some people don't see it.
