The great thing about god is no matter how illogical your explanations for him are you can always say "it's god, he doesn't follow our rules". You can pretty much explain everything (even why 1 + 1= 3) with that system of arguing.

 

 

I hate the 'god is outside our logic' bullshit.

People claiming god is out of system of logic without any proof for the statement, is lame.

How do they know this? They don't, they just guess. They know nothing about god.

I believe logic is above god, logic is transcendent of all things. 1 + 1 will always equal 2 within the laws of standard mathematics, even god cannot change that. He may be able to destoy the universe and make math a different way, but the fact remains, 1 + 1 will always equal 2, even if our system of mathematics was gone, even if no one was here to think those thoughts.

 

 

You know I don't mind if someone believes in god. That's completely ok with me and I highly respect other people's believes. The problem is as soon as you're arguing from that standpoint you can completely twist everything, make true statements false and can use it to legitimate power, etc. It is so easy to abuse this system of thinking (I could tell you that I'm god's grandson or something and justifiy it with some illogical statements) it is a danger to progress, freedom and quite evrything we've been fighting for in the past.
