They don't. "Faith" means that you believe in something WITHOUT a good reason.
he thought they could work together because he wanted people to live in peace
Thomas Aquinas believed that reason and faith could work together harmoniously by asserting that reason could lead to the understanding and deepening of one's faith. He argued that reason could help clarify and support the truths revealed by faith, allowing for a rational exploration of theological matters while maintaining the primacy of faith in matters of divine revelation. Aquinas believed that reason and faith were complementary tools that could ultimately lead to a more profound understanding of the truth.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Faith then is the first governing principle which has power, domination, and authority over all things; by it they exist, by it they are upheld, by it they are changed. We are told that man is endowed with reason and capable of distinguishing good from evil. A person will reason something out in their mind, and in their reasoning usually arrive at the truth if they have a groundwork of some knowledge to work with..
At the First Vatican Council (1869-1870), the Pope and bishops reaffirmed that faith and reason are complementary rather than contradictory. They emphasized that reason can lead individuals to a knowledge of God and that faith, while a divine gift, does not oppose rational inquiry. The council articulated that both faith and reason work together to deepen understanding of divine truths. This relationship underscores the importance of using human intellect in theological exploration.

They have been separated for quite some time, the reason for not divorcing might have something to do with Katherine's faith.
Though faith is above reason, there can never be a contradiction between faith and science because both originate in God. It is God himself who gives to us the light both of reason and of faith.
"With this faith, we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith, we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith, we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day." Martin Luther King, Jr. (August 23, 1963)
In the Christian faith, the first man to write about the interdependence between faith and reason was Saint Thomas Aquinas, who lived from 1225 until 1274.
