"Belief in God is not irrational because theologians say that belief in God doesn't require evidence to be rational. Therefore, it is completely rational."
In what universe is this not circular reasoning?
No, 'basic belief' and 'properly basic belief' are long-standing philosophical concepts that have nothing specific to do with religion. Your above characterization of the argument is way off so your conclusion is nonsense.
Except that Plantinga and Co. are shoving Christianity in as one of these "properly basic" beliefs without any justification at all. Also, news flash - philosophical concepts are not brute facts. They are entirely subject to rebuttal and criticism, which is plainly obvious in the case of your Reformed Epistemology woo-hoo. You and Wooters must get along beautifully...
