So here's my question for all of you who think it makes perfect sense to answer questions like "What is morality?" and "How can we account for the rules of logic?", which of the following describes how you came to embrace this line of thinking:
1. Like the news anchor, you were unable to function, constantly plagued by unanswered questions of why we use logic or what morality is. Then someone told you "JesusDidIt" or "JesusWillsIt" and there was clarity and you were able to function in life again.
2. You were already a Christian and this philoso-babble helps you find justification for a belief you already had in the first place.
