"Fideism is an epistemological theory which maintains that faith is independent of reason, or that
reason and faith are hostile to each other and faith is superior at arriving at particular truths..." Wikipedia
"Fideism, as cited by Greg Bahnsen, can be defined in these ways:
1. Christian assertions are matters of blind belief and cannot be known or demonstrated to be true.
2. ...religious truths are inaccessible to human reason.
3. ...a pejorative term for subjectivist theories which are based upon religious experience and which undervalue reason in theology." ABR
You don't have to fall back to a position of "Fideism" when defending your belief.... and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: 1 Peter 3:15
