I don’t believe logic is the proper tool for relating to God or other people.

Would you divorce reason altogether from the understanding and discussion and explanation of religion? (I admit I dislike the phrase "relate to" -- it's soooo 60s!) C.S. Lewis certainly didn't reject logic in composing his essays.

[Mr Rogers]

I do not REJECT logic, but neither do I think it adequate to bring us to God. Logic, like everything else that springs from man, is fallen and imperfect.

As for relate - that is what family involves. Relations. It is what exists between two people, and the God of the Bible is personal. He is not a principle to be comprehended or observed, but personal.

Logic has little to do with my marriage to my wife - BOY does it ever have little to do! And logic will not compel us to know God or enjoy Him. My love for my children is not produced by or limited to logic, nor my love of my dogs or my horses. Logic is the wrong tool for the job.
