I'm sure you've experienced what I'm trying to say when sometimes a theist has a pretty solid theological argument for something and you can't seem to find a way in to be able to dismantle it. I think it takes an intelligent person to be able to formulate such an argument. But once again, said argument is a reflection of logic at work and not necessarily a truth about reality.
I agree and didn't say that.
Yes I have and those are the ones I most like to deal with. I love it when the theist has a solid understanding of the concepts at hand.
What I'm wonder about now is the rest of them. The ones that base there arguments off of "you can't understand God with logic and reason" (an actual quote). Even these people I will still say are not illogical or stupid, they just ignore logic for God.
In the end I just want to know how to reach people. Even if they are stupid and undoubtedly some of them are.
