Why do you believe that God's creation can and should be explained in logical terms? Can you logically explain a miracle, virgin birth, walking on water, resurrection, the Trinity? To name is not the same as explaining.

As I explained in my previous post, Lord's command to go out and give names to all the things that were created for our benefit certainly sound like a command to go out and learn about the Universe. Furthermore, I believe, that by learning all we can about God's creation we pay homage to the Creator.

Can you logically explain a miracle, virgin birth, walking on water, resurrection, the Trinity?

No. This, by the way, is where our faiths part ways. However, believing in the divinity of Jesus does not invalidate my argument. Explaining the creation is not the same as explaining the Creator - neither your version of the Creator nor mine.
