Are Theists Illogical for Believing in God?

RE: Are Theists Illogical for Believing in God?
(June 7, 2010 at 9:49 pm)The_Flying_Skeptic Wrote: one 'laws of logic' is that x cannot be y at the same time. that has to be true for all universes. whatever object of whatever universe cannot be another object at the same time.

logical arguments such as

all x objects have property x
jordan is x object
jordan has x property

apply to any universe.

even the logical fallacies should apply to all universes.
In fact we have no idea why logic should apply to our universe (there is no rule within logic that says that it should). So how can you assert that it applies to other universes?
