Being logical is important, especially in your own reasoning.
Why would we need to be logical if evolution were true? How does a material only belief system account for an immaterial law of logic?
Any logical answers???
Being able to reason improves our chances to survive. Logic is material enough to build into computers.

Unsupported assertion.

Who says truth is relative?

Another bare assertion. You know that what is asserted without reason can be dismissed without reason, don't you?

Since your previous statements were mere assertions, any conclusions you draw from them are equally unsupported.

Deductive logic can deal in absolute truth in the case of a valid argument with true premises.
If all cats are mammals and Periwinkle is a cat, then Periwinkle must be a mammal; that is, it's true that Periwinkle is a mammal if Periwinkle is a cat.
Proofs are for maths and whiskey, and logic is part of math. I agree with you about science, which is about arriving at the closest possible approximation of the truth: good enough to make devices that rely on quantum activity, but not absolute.
