Faith vs Reason

I've noticed over the years that some deeply religious people (particularly Christians in the US) tend to argue that believing in a god and holding to a religion is more rational than having agnostic or atheist views. I find this amusing not just because I think this is rather flawed, but because there was a time when Christian leaders were arguing AGAINST the use of reason. They actually saw it as a threat to faith and said as much. Others have tried to find a way to reconcile the two, often with some rather flawed results. Of course, a great number of religious people have no clue of the history of this long standing and ongoing debate. So as usual, I give my own perspective on it, simplified as it is.
