RE: If you believe in the God of the Bible, why try to prove it logically?

I've often wondered the same thing. Why bother trying to make secular arguments in the defense of religion. The type of logic that they apply wasn't used by the various churches for the vast majority of their history. That's why faith is put up as such a virtue. If you accept faith as a virtue why bother with the rest? It actually extends way beyond the God of the bible. People are expected to give secular reasoning in defense of any religious idea. Be it Buddhist 'philosophy' or the Muslim dress code or 'proof' of the Resurrection. That's why these arguments all sound so hollow and shitty They started out as thousand year old arguments and until recently were just accepted on faith. Now they have to defend them and resort to making up whatever crap they have to in order to defend it.
