You don't always apply logic, sometimes it's "ife inu". Besides logic does not always apply to God.

So, can we say the idea of your God is illogical?

Of course not. But God transcends logic, which merely pertains to humans.

We're still saying same thing, since logic cannot be apply to God then he's illogical.

This is one of your "ife inu" I was talking about. Logic or illogicality are constrained or limited but God is not.

God is not limited is your assumptions. Logic is limited to this universe, we can apply logic to things in this observable universe but not outside the universe, we haven't experienced any, we will only be assuming fairytales and assumptions, we don't even know if there is outside.

God is supernatural and not only God, fairies, Santa, Leprechauns, Elves, unicorns etc are supernatural and logic cannot be apply to them. God is mysterious and do mysterious things, he do/does things as he will, so we can say God is illogical.

Equating God with these...things you mentioned says alot. I don't know what to do with you again. Every possible line of argument has been exhausted on both sides.

If only I have some ruhaniya bent to my will you for learn.

You are finding it hard to accept God is illogical.

Ok, God is both logical and illogical, agree?

No. It is you who are finding hard to comprehend that being illogical is not synonymous with being beyond logic. This is English, tintingz.

When something is beyond logic then it's not logical atleast in our universe.

When something is beyond physical then it's not physical.

When something is "beyond" it's outside the scope or understanding of it.

For example: tintingz what you did is beyond morality. Is it the same as tintingz is immoral?

Sorry tintingz. But you are not using "logic" nor "reasoning" nor do you want to "get" anyone's logic!

What you do is create 'concepts' in your head and shove it in other people's head, which is dishonest and tiring.

Ain't it great to have "Allah fuel", people!

To him, a thing is either logical or illogical. He can not understand how for you, a thing can be illogical and logical at the same time such that both logical and illogical are irrelevant.

It is beyond his mind, see. And so it should be. For as the Prophet Bob Marley ṣallā Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-ʿala āli-hi wa-sallam once said,

"Jah will never give the Power to a baldhead!"

Let me make Him sing it Himself.

It seems you are still not getting it.

You already have your standard of morality base on religious texts, if I act beyond such morality then yes I'm Immoral to you.

Or why did Allah destroyed the people of Sodom and Gomorrah as claimed in the Qur'an? Was it not because the people acted beyond the morality of Allah? They broke Allah's law?

Lol, you're strawmaning.

I don't create concept in my head, I follow the premises presented!

If you're arguing for Allah then i argue base on Allah's attributes in the Qur'an, even Muslims knows my arguments are what the Quran literally said. If you want to argue about Yahweh then we argue base on Yahweh's attributes. Whatever God you want to argue for you need to give reference or present the idea of God you're arguing for. My arguments are base on premises given and I know the fallacies.

I've asked you countless times to tell us the idea of God you're arguing for, you're jumping from one God to another, I think you're being tricky and careful not to shoot yourself in the foot.

If you want to argue, tell us what you're arguing for and with references and let follow the premises(not jumping from one place to another) so as not to commit fallacies.

No! Only in your head is "something is beyond logic then it's not logical"!

This your "beyond" is a problem. You better explain what you mean by it!

Nothing is "beyond logic". The illogical is a part of the universe. Unless you are saying "the universe is in your head" tingz.

tintingz:
When something is beyond physical then it's not physical.

Agreed. Though I disagree with your "beyond". Let me know if what you mean is,

"If a thing is not physical it is not physical", as in, "A thing is either physical or not physical".

tintingz:
When something is "beyond" it's outside the scope or understanding of it.
"When something is "beyond" it's outside the scope or understanding of it", for you? Not for me! I go up the mountain and.......opps!

Nothing is beyond or "outside the scope of understanding" for me, tingz.

That's why you are an atheist or is it not?

Please define "beyond".

Note: My premise was that "I want to get the logic of @sino arguing for Allah" and @aadoiza said logic is not always apply to God that God is beyond logic.

This your "beyond" is a problem. You better explain what you mean by it!
My beyond is base on definition in the dictionary. And I gave example of it in my premise.

Nothing is "beyond logic". The illogical is a part of the universe. Unless you are saying "the universe is in your head" tingz.
Illogical is the opposite/negative of logic.

Spiritual world is opposite/negative of natural world.

When something is not part of our universe then it's illogical to us here or can you deduce what's outside the universe?

Agreed. Though I disagree with your "beyond". Let me know if what you mean is,

"If a thing is not physical it is not physical", as in, "A thing is either physical or not physical".
Yes

Can you give your definition of beyond?
Re: Philosophical Questions: Where Did Theism Get It Wrong? by budaatum: 11:53pm On Jun 03, 2019

Definition of Beyond
1 : something that lies on or to the farther side
2 : something that lies outside the scope of ordinary experience

I pity him sometimes. I think his reason for becoming atheist is due to the "band wagon" effect. He jumped ship too soon to have a feel of the trendy atheism only to make a mess of himself on a public forum.
