There are moments in human history when faith coincides with the power of reason. Such moments may appear to be strange events because they reflect a great danger and a great hope for mankind at the same time.
These moments are so incredible that they appear to be like magical moments of divine intervention; and they are so unbelievable because they are moments when public opinion breaks down completely at the same time that most of mankind is forced to go through an unexpected axiomatic transformation. What is amazing, however, is that when such moments arrive, an angel is sent to announce the change and to orient mankind in its proper direction.
The irony of such moments is that they cannot be known in advance and be determined ahead of time, except if it is in accordance with what Leibniz had identified as the principle of preestablished harmony between reason and power. But even then, it is never predetermined as if its pathway were set in advance.
Such a moment took place over 500 years ago in Europe, and was the event which launched the French Renaissance. That extraordinary historical moment of coincidence between faith and reason was caused by the coming of Joan of Arc.
