I was patiently trying to explain to you why you can prefer science and reason without logically justifying their use.

I'm not an atheist but I appreciate that you think I'm "clever".
Quote:The only way to avoid answering any question using logic is to say things like "it just is" or say no logical reason has to be given for my questions. That way there is no obligation to reason rationally. Very clever.
I haven't avoided it. I've given you the same answer over and over. These "laws of logic" are not magical forces that shape our universe. They're observations of how the universe works. But you already know that because you edited out that part of my post in your response.
Quote:It is true that chemical reactions over millions of years don't have to be rational.You've proven that point abundantly throughout this thread.
We all have the Gift of Reason. Some people apparently choose not to use it. Your consumer objective is clearly to feel justified in using your magic-worldview rather than know what is true. Hence you've purchased the presuppositionalist product.

Your welcome.
Any time you like, you can answer my questions contained in that post.
I won't hold my breath.
