God: Proofs of non-existence and existence.

[athoughtfulman]

If you feel as though you have come to your conclusions about Christianity on the basis of rational thought, but do not insist that everyone believe, are you saying that reason is different to different people? And if so, then how could anyone ever have a "reasonable" discussion, if no one agreed on what reason actually was.

For the idea of reason to work, I think it would need to have to have at least a similar meaning to everyone, otherwise everyone could base their claim on reason, simply for the fact that it was the way they defined reason.
