Pascal and evidence

Pascal provides arguments and appeals to miracles to show the plausibility of the Christian revelation. However, in the end he recognizes that, although evidence is necessary for faith, faith is never the product solely of evidence, for humans will in the end believe what they find most attractive: “There is enough light for those who desire only to see, and enough darkness for those of a contrary disposition.” [Blaise Pascal, Pensées, trans. William Finlayson Trotter (New York: Dutton, 1958), 118.]—Evans, A History of Western Philosophy, 236
