Not William James! But you have a point. Perhaps a distinction needs to be made because the term "rational theist" can mean two things: EITHER a theist who is capable of reason OR a theist who has come to be a theist because of logical reasoning. The two are, in fact, distinct, and my post may have equivocated there.
