Why not? because you say so? Why is it that some believers think they can just lay down the rules and everyone just has to accept them, just because they say so?!

The "rules" I am using are: logic and evidence. I didn't make up this stuff.

Now, now, Betty.

You SHOULD KNOW! . . . . LOL . . .

that the tolerable rules

are ONLY

those idiosyncratic ones the particular pseudo-super-rationalist

has personally derived and mangled into his/her own unique construction on what is/ought to be

. . . particularly as allowable in verbal fencing matches [because the pseudo-super-rationalist can’t even live by his/her own irrational ‘rules’ in the rest of their personal lives.

Anything and everything else

is UNREAL

by definition.

Logic is subject to human undertsanidng and comprehension and evidence should be demonstrable. You said God is subject neither to logic nor provable evidence. Besides, one must be able to define what it is he believes in. Evidently, that's not possible either. So, what's left?
