Today in Jewish History, we talked about how we, as reform Jews, make our decisions.  Most reform Jews today would likely say that they made their decisions based on reason.  However, if you went back just a little bit over 200 years, most reform Jews would probably say they made their decisions based on religion.  Though today it makes sense to go by reason, 70 years ago the Nazis were led to the Holocaust by reason.  Granted, they were stupid reasons, but to them, that was good reason!  Is it okay to say that, if you think something through, and to you it seems reasonable, then you should definitely do it?
In my opinion, it is important to have a steady balance of reason and religion.  If a decision is more logical, than reason should be used for that situation.  If the choice plays more into religion, then religion should be used.  We should also study Torah regularly in order to understand what choices we should make in a religious situation.  As reform Jews, we do sometimes forget that we need to take part in our religious beliefs, this coming from someone who does not go to services more than once a month on average.  Sometimes, we just need to take Judaism a little more seriously, and if we do that, we can achieve a great balance between reason and religion.
