In the Orthodox understanding, true knowledge does not derive from the intellect but from faith in communion with God. I *think* Catholicism sets itself up on the foundation of reason. They made Aquinas a saint for his "If A, then B, If B, then God." arguments. That mindset encourages a sort of debate atmosphere online.
