God is the Author of the truths of faith and the truths learned by reason unaided by revelation. There can be no contradiction between the two.

The Catholic Church historically observes the disciplines of fasting and abstinence at various times each year. For Catholics, fasting is the reduction of one’s intake of food, while abstinence refers to refraining from meat (or another type of food). The Catholic Church teaches that all people are obliged by God to perform some penance for their sins, and that these acts of penance are both personal and corporeal. The purpose of fasting is spiritual focus, self-discipline, imitation of Christ, and performing penance. Bodily fasting is meaningless unless it is joined with a spiritual fast from sin. St. Basil gives the following exhortation regarding fasting:
“Let us fast an acceptable and very pleasing fast to the Lord. True fast is the estrangement from evil, temperance of tongue, abstinence from anger, separation from desires, slander, falsehood and perjury. Privation of these is true fasting.”

Unless the mind and will are ready to believe in God’s absolute right to teach and command, there is little likelihood that fasting and penance with extra prayer will be followed carefully.
The will must be free of self-interested desires and fears in order to bend the mind to assent to an unseen God and to His whole mysterious order of salvation. Prejudices and sinful habits easily find excuses for refusing assent to truth and to self-discipline.

My Dear friends. I have and always will, make a distinction on St: Paul’s commentary on the need for the virtues of Faith Hope and Charity. With out these virtues, one will lack the ability to reason. St. Paul stresses the importance of charity above all things but one must understand that God would never give anyone the gift of prophecy or the faith to move mountains if one did not have charity in the first place. In Christ, Joseph
Charity is to be preferred before all gifts.
