Why are the Laws of Logic perfect in a naturalistic worldview?

Because these Laws aren't prescriptive laws, they are descriptive laws. We explained how things are and gave them a name. In effect we are stating "That is the way the universe behaves, and that's what we use as axioms." We made the laws for ourselves to make sense of things, not for everything in the universe to follow.

If i could be so bold as to ask why you believe the christian worldview accounts for this? If god created the laws of logic..if they were prescriptive, could he not have made them such that a statement could be both true and false simultaneously?

The laws of logic would have to be assumed before we could even formulate them as descriptions, so that can't be the answer there. That would also lead to the possibility that somewhere in the universe (since we have actually observed very little of it) there can be things that are and are not in the same relationship and at the same time and I am not sure anyone believes this to be the case. This would also only move the question to, “Well then why does the universe behave that way?”

The Christian worldview can account for the laws of logic because they are a reflection of the manner in which God thinks. God's thought processes are a result of His eternal and perfect nature, so the laws of logic will never change and universally apply.

Statler, if everyone just admitted absolute and utter defeat. How would you make the leap from the generic "god" to the specific "Christ"? All your posturing is empty if you cannot do this.

The only God who could account for these things would have to have the same attributes and nature as the God of the Bible. This would of course logically mean this God is the God of the Bible.
