IDK what if EVERTHING I ever shared with you all was 100% to the best of my ability true? would it not then be reasonable FOR ME if I keep getting input and stimuli from what the bible describes as the Holy Spirit, to believe in God?

Reason/sensibility are variables which yield different levels of understanding and belief. if you have no exposure to God then yes it is reasonable for you to go down a certain path. however if you choose to ignore what God offers us/share with you the Holy Spirit, then that becomes the unreasonable bit

You're missing a few gears in your wheelhouse, friend.  I wasn't talking about your beliefs but about your base ability to reason, as displayed in recent arguments.
and you need someone to connect ALL the dots before you can see a bigger picture.

And I agreed but also showed that all reasoning is based on personal experience. we do not have the same baseline therefore will come to different conclusion even if we use the same formula or mechanics of reasoning. why? because our experiences will be different.

For instance I maybe willing to take more chances weighing out risk the same way you do, however that does not mean i will come to the same conclusion as you would if my EXPERIENCE in taking chance always turns out to be bad.

Do you get it now?

So if my experience with God was real and your experience was non existent then we using the same process of reasoning by default have come to different conclusions.

Do you see now? do you finally understand what I am saying/cant judge reasoning on out come, because personal experience is a variable you can not account for when a person decides what is and is not reasonable.

See my gears are there, they just move a lot faster than yours.
