Also see Beyond Good and Evil #191 ("The ancient theological problem of
'faith' and 'knowledge'--or, more clearly, of instinct and reason--in other
words, the question whether regarding the valuation of things instinct
deserves more authority than rationality..."). The issue as Nietzsche paints
it is not at all an either/or one.
