I thought your god was keeping you safe

If logical reasoning from true premises can never constitute evidence for you, then yes, a lot of evidence would necessarily be off the table, though certainly not all.  However, I think that is an entirely naive to take, and I mean that in the most serious and non-pejorative sense.  Think of all of the areas of life that would be destroyed by that way of thinking.  Legal proceedings would come to an absolute hault overnight.  Even our personal relationships would suffer, as we wouldn't be able to reason from a persons behavior toward us, to their ultimate intent.  If there is no evidential value in logical reasoning, much of human existence would end up falling apart.  It is possible that I'm deluded, but as of yet, I have no evidence to suggest that is so.  Those who hold positions other than my own are showing themselves to be rude, crass, and generally uninterested in discussion.  Instead, they make assertions, deride, and name-call.  In that context, I'm not tempted to think of myself as deluded.
