If "erring on the side of caution" is interchangeable with "not utilizing reason" (as you explained so well)...then aren't you endangering yourself every time you manage to produce a single cogent thought? I simply see no way to hedge against risk with that being the case. How do you manage to do your taxes without threatening your faith and love? How do you decide which tv set is better than the other at Best Buy? By what means do you determine the appropriate manner of dress for your days activities? How have you decided which words and in what order to respond to me with...or even the contents of my posts so that you might respond?
It just seems....well..unworkable. It seems to me that you are taking on much more risk then you seem to be aware of/prepared for.
How do I distinguish when to use reason and logic? Very easily.
My taxes don't question the authority of God. Buying a TV doesn't question the love of my Savior Jesus Christ. Deciding on most of the days random activities is not going to bring into question my faith in God. It's just that simple.
Like I said, logic and reason were given to me to make use of, not to question the Almighty. Satan knows how to use them against me, so I simply guard against it.
