My own religion
Well, if would seem so in the positive, namely that God is logical according to some non-religious humans. I can't use atheists, because that will derail completely, so non-religious humans it is.
Here is, how it goes. There are many contradicting claims about God and they can't be true, because they lead to the contradictions about, what God is. Fair and well, but there is a hidden assumption for it to hold, namely that God is logical and can't be contradictory. So how do they know, that God is logical? Well, if they know that, then they have proven, that God exists. And I doubt that, this was their intent. So they will have to admit that, they don't know, if God is logical or contradictory, so the argument fails. If they then claim, that it proves, God is contradictory, then again they know and thus God exists.
It is a lousy argument, because its hidden assumption doesn't hold. I am so tried of these attempts at applying logic on God. Now I am not saying, God doesn't exist nor exists. I am a skeptic and I don't know anything about that.
And I accept all humans as humans, so you can try to prove with logic that God exists or not, but I doubt you will succeed. I am a skeptic after all.
But if someone tries to play with logic, we better know, what we are doing and check our own thinking. That goes for us all, including me. So if I have made an error in my thinking, please point it out and I will try to learn.
Regards and love, though this is a debate sub-forum.
