“In answer to my question: “So.... could you be reasoned out of your belief in God?”

Your answer: “No, I couldn’t.””

I sit corrected... now, if there is reason I’m willing to listen to it. Do you believe you can reason away God?

Begin.... now.

It’s not my intention to dent your belief. Reason is a poor tool for working with faith. If you can conjur up an almighty being that created everything in the universe and who has a overbearing interest in when I have sex with my wife, what type of fabrics I wear and when I can beat my slave, then you can surely conjur up any amount of answers to any reasonable argument put to you.

If having faith works for you, then I wish you well in it.

Your comment reminds me of Gal. 1:8 when Paul said the Galatians shouldn’t be swayed even if an angel from heaven declared something contrary to the good news.

Reasoned out of belief in God? Whose reasoning would be sufficiently authoritative and superior to an angel from heaven?
