More From Robert A. Heinlein

Faith is indeed intellectual; it involves an apprehension of certain things as facts; and vain is the modern effort to divorce faith from knowledge. but although faith is intellectual, it is not only intellectual. you cannot have faith without having knowledge; but you will not have faith if you have only knowledge.
Divorce Effort Intellectual
One can be deceived by three types of laziness: of indolence, which is the wish to procrastinate; the laziness of inferiority, which is doubting your capabilities; and the laziness that is attachment to negative actions, or putting great effort into non-virtue.
Inspirational Self Esteem Attachment
Faith and daily life, faith and work-these are not separate things. they are one and the same. to think of them as separate-that faith is faith, and work is work-is theoretical faith. based on the recognition that work and faith are one and the same, we should put one hundred percent of our energy into our jobs and one hundred percent into our faith, too. when we resolve to do this, we enter the path of victory in life. faith means to show irrefutable proof of victory amid the realities of society and in our own daily lives.
Jobs Mean Reality
Faith strikes me as intellectual laziness, but i don't argue with it - especially as i am rarely in a position to prove that it is mistaken. negative proof is usually impossible.
Faith Intellectual Negative
Children, by nature, are keen, passionate and curious. what was referred to as laziness is often merely an awakening of sensitivity, a psychological inability to submit to certain absurd duties, and a natural result of the distorted, unbalanced education given to them. this laziness, which leads to an insuperable reluctance to learn, is, contrary to appearances, sometimes proof of intellectual superiority and a condemnation of the teacher.
Teacher Children Intellectual
In buddhism, both learning and practice are extremely important, and they must go hand in hand. without knowledge, just to rely on faith, faith, and more faith is good but not sufficient. so the intellectual part must definitely be present. at the same time, strictly intellectual development without faith and practice, is also of no use. it is necessary to combine knowledge born from study with sincere practice in our daily lives. these two must go together.
