Which ones in particular do you find most illogical?
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

it makes perfect sense and perfect logic email me and ill talk to you, you can ask whatever you like. the bible says that the natural unblieveing man will not understand the bible only the holy spirit can help you fully understand it. god exists, through his word testimonies of people in churches and in life. through my life. science points to the bible when it makes sense. when it doesnt you can rip the theory apart.

RE: Q about arguments for God's existence.
I think that you probably read the bible...and took your understanding of it from within.  I'm not sure you needed any ghosts help.  I can read too, btw.  Many of us can, in fact.  
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

When asked about gods, why do they always switch the subject and talk about books? You don't need three guesses.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

How else are you supposed to reference fairy tales and just-so stories?

RE: Q about arguments for God's existence.
Like Polaris above, I too would like to know which arguments specifically the OP was referring to. I agree, there are a lot of illogical and petty "arguments" for the existence of God. It's a shame so many of us Christians do such a poor job explaining or even understanding why we believe what we believe.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
