Priesto wrote:Just a quick point, everything in this world is not "logical". You make it seem as if man has full understanding of the world, which he does not. How can man with limited knowledge define logic as a whole? The mechanics of the way we see things is so man can form conclusions and think for himself, if things were not in an order, how can we then form fact or gain knowledge?
I'm not sure if this was one point with intended support or five half-points with nothing of value.
1) Why do you say that everything is not logical? As far as I can tell, there is a logical *explanation* for everything in the world. Even if someone thinks or does something illogical, there's still a logical (albeit often psychological or medical) reason that they said/did it.
2) Why in the name of all piss and vinegar are you suggesting that people with limited knowledge of the universe are unable to define logic? I'm going to graciously assume, however, that you meant to suggest that without knowing everything, we cannot form logical explanations for everything. 'So?' would be the appropriate answer to that point, followed by, 'and if we don't have the knowledge or know how to detect, measure, or monitor your god or his activities, how do you conclude that we can rationalize his existance? On the word of a few uneducated peasants from an illiterate, semi-unimportant nation two millennia and more gone? Or are you just saying that you have no choice but to flounder around in a cushioning morass of illogical beliefs while martyring yourself to the mockery from the rest of us?'
Note: I'm semi-retired from the board, so if you need something, please be patient.
