In faith, you assume your premises are true; in empiricism you test your premises. Either way, logical reasoning is possible.
I disagree.
Here's an example from empiricism
If X then Y.
X.
Therefore Y.
Wait, there is no Y.
Crap, someone go back and check "If X then Y."
Here's an example from faith
X. Y.
You don't need an "if then" statement. You simple accept all the variables as being equally true and unrefutable. Reasoning doesn't play a role.
Could you attempt to apply reasoning to it? Yes.
Could you attempt to apply paint to the wind? Yes.
In neither case you would be very successful.
