 So basically, If I make up something you'll just out right reject it. What about if years later it just happens that what I made up is actually true? (proven by science of course) Then what would you do? If you'd retake it as true because of science, then why did you reject it in the first place? See where I'm going? You can't reject something just because you 'think' it's made up.. it might turn out not to be made up.  I do agree to a certain degree with being reasonable, but out of sake of logic, I just can't conform.

And how do you know that animals have free will or not? You don't. But what about you? Aren't you human? do you not think you have free will?

Out of the sake of logic you do not reject the idea of an invisible dragon that I just made up?  If something is made up, with absolutely no reason behind the statement, it should always be rejected.  If it turns out to be true, then it is nothing more than chance.  If I tell you that a monster from Mars is going to destroy your house and that you should move away, a logical person would reject the statement and not use it in decision making.

Since you 'hope', that means you still think it's possible he does not exist, so you are even more logical than a pure atheist in that sense.

Thats not true, for obvious reasons.  I hope that the monster from Mars brings me a ton of gold, that does not make me more logical than someone who doesnt believe that a monster from Mars will bring people gold.
