Is Christianity Illogical?

[Hovik]

Actually, the study of history is a science. How do you think we know what we know? Archaeology, linguistics, philology, etc. are all sciences.

As for your assertion about language, I happen to be a linguist, and I'm going to have to disagree with you. We know the word 'love' is spelled 'love' because we have science that tells us the evolution of the word. English may not be a science, but then again neither are atoms. The study thereof is where science comes into play.

Pardon my lack of scientific knowledge about science! It sounds as though you are saying all knowledge is science. Am I misunderstanding you?

I didn't say knowledge is science. What I'm saying is all knowledge about the world is obtained through science. By science, I mean the observation and testing of the world around us in a formalized, logical, and rigorous manner. To quote Thomas Huxley, "the deepest sin against the human mind is to believe things without evidence. Science is simply common sense at its best--that is, rigidly accurate in observation, and merciless to fallacy in logic."
