Maybe he accepts it as a matter of faith . If some one wants to defend any religion based on logic and proof , and without relying on sacred scriptures bring it on .

I ain't even gonna try, because there is a leap of faith required in many areas that goes beyond any logic and proof that I can muster.

I just thought that since so many are busy spamming, and not reading intelligent posts like yours, I’d say “Way to go.” Thanks.

EVERYONE has to rely on faith that is otherwise UNPROVABLE, except by testing it (Jesus said, to paraphrase, “If anyone wants to know whether my doctrine is of God, or whether I speak of myself, let him do it.”). He gave the perfect way, if you want to know if something is true, you can try it, but there is no logical way to “know” anything about God, unless one gets it in the way that God gives it, and that, remains now, and forever, nonsensical to man. Man can only obey and learn after God’s order, not figure God out by himself. The debate has been ragine for many thousand years, with no consensus, and there never will be. (Well until the millenium and the wicked are no longer present, then everyone I guess would know, but that too is a Christian belief, so...)

Thanks for posting.
