So you haven't come up with any justification for logic according to your worldview. How do you account for the law of uniformity which science presupposes? Simpler terms... How do you know the future will be like the past?
Let me guess... "because the future has always been like the past in the past".
Lets see if you recognize the problem with the answer that I most commonly get from atheists.
Your argument is this:
The existence of a rational universe can only be explained by a creator
The universe we live in is a rational one
Therefore, a creator exists.
The problem is that you've failed to prove the first premise. You have to first prove that the only way to account for us living in a rational universe is indeed a creator. I don't think you can prove that, as we don't even know what an irrational universe would look like, or even if one is even possible (Actually, I think this whole discussion is just metaphysical philosophical bullshit)
I think (and this is just speculation, again I think this whole discussion is worthless) that the problem can be solved by simply employing the anthropic principle. That is, if life could not exist in an irrational universe, then if we exist at all we'd expect to find ourselves in a rational one.
