Wouldn't it be more reasonable, since all human things depend on faith, to believe God rather than them? Who goes on a voyage, or gets engaged to be married, or becomes the parent of children, or sows seed in the ground, without believing that something better will happen because they did, even though the contrary might and sometimes does happen instead?
Origen,Against Celsus, book 1 chapter 11
