Live Science just released an article dealing with the subject of faith and intuition.

Here is the article: news.yahoo.com...

This is fascinating to me, because my whole perception of my surroundings and the world around me has changed in the last 10 years or so. I suppose I have always been a spiritual (not religious) person and I have had faith since I was very young, but I seem to understand things a lot more clearly now. I think that is significant that the researchers used math as a test on this subject, because I think it is all related somehow. I have studied some of the theories on sacred geometry and find that fascinating as well. I know some will not understand and disagree, but I believe mathematics in general are the key to the universe, and there is a correlation between the two. Thank you and have a great day!
Romans 12:2 (KJV) ~ And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

This article talks about the questions they used, Those are rationality questions, so not really math though the article states its math. (which makes me questions the writer of the article in the first place)

They seemed to have been testing for rationality vs intuitiveness.

Neither is bad to be, Intuitiveness tends to be our ability to make snap decisions in a crisis, kind of like if your being chases by a tiger do you jump into the river near you or keep running along it, its a snap decision.

Some times its right some times its wrong.

Rationality would be stopping and pondering what best course of action to take, it too can be right or wrong.

Now this article is saying people of faith are more intuitive vs rational, which again being either is neither wrong or right.

Intelligence is something completely separate from Rationality and Intuitiveness, you can be Rational and Not intelligent, just as you can be Intelligent and irrational.
