please explain why FAITH provides a pathway to truth and is it reliable?
Not being a 'religious' person I am not sure if I should be responding.  But I would like to know who the question is actually addressed to.  Certainly not the Christian faith as your sequence, as given, is the complete opposite of that found in Christianity..
