The clash of Faith and Reason went through stages of crisis and conflict due to partial positioning or inaccurate definitions of issues, which divided the antagonists. A historical analysis of the religious sources and philosophical doctrines leads to serene attitudes and to an objective understanding of the differences. Among the cultural currents which progress contributed to a better understanding of Faith and Reason, it can be highlighted the existential philosophy, phenomenology, as well as the names of Martin Heidegger and Emmanuel Lévinas. The combination of these favorable factors helps nowadays to predominate in culture the pursuit of objective truth and the cherish freedom. Crises and the old antinomies are overcomed as are affirmed the comprehensive view of the differences between Faith and Reason, Religion and Secularism.
