I remember hearing the Rav saying in a Shiur that the basis of our belief in the Torah is simple faith. But I did Teshuva through reasons to believe in Judaism. For example, the revelation of HaShem at Mount Sinai. And, the legitimacy of the Mesorah of the Oral Torah. These arguments greatly helped me, but now you say that, why is Judaism true? Because, it just is. The fact that you can prove it is an extra, but it shouldn't be the underlying reason for faith in the Torah. This is really bothering my Emunah. Why would the reason to believe in the ultimate truth be on simple faith? Isn't a basic reason to believe not only nice, but necessary? To believe that there is Gan Eden and Gehenom and that the Torah is true, we need a legitimate reason,, not just blind fsith, no?
