This has been especially true since the Enlightenment. Yet the Wisdom of God begins where Human Logic fails.

Though it’s not hard to stretch back 3000 years and let the Psalmist explain: (Psalms 46)

8Come, behold the works of the LORD,
Who has wrought desolations in the earth.

9He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth;
He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;
He burns the chariots with fire.

10“Cease striving and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”

11The LORD of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our stronghold.
