2978. It is the realm of knowledge that does not admit matters of belief. The realm of understanding admits them more, the inward realm of conviction admits them the most, and it was clearly seen in every thought about matters of faith how resistance asserted itself, for they did not want to admit them, although they were not denying them. But the realms cannot so well be further described, because they cannot be understood without inner sight.
