I am not here to show you anything. I want you to realise that you are not being reasonable when you accuse theists of being illogical.

Now answer these questions with all seriousness. If you cant ignore for the others.

Perharps God has revealed his character to some in a way they would never have imagined and others he allows to wallow in their ignorance. Is there a place for a thought/happening like this in logic?

Or maybe because you had a bad experience and hate the feeling of guilt, you 'd strongly reject any idea of entertaining a God. And because this hatred had become so unbearable it'd brought you to a state of denial of that thing you cannot tolerate? Is there a possibility of a thing like this in logic

Does a lack of substantial evidence indicate lack of logic?

Lets say a man claims to be saved and renewed by God.

Which reaction will be more logical?

a, He professes to believe in God and acknowledges his existence. And becomes a changed man
b, He starts doubting his sensibility even though he is very sane as evidenced in his everyday interaction and decisions. (Does logic fail the average man when it comes to religion?)

As I said earlier, the issue with your "personal experience of God" claims does not beg any question of logic.

No one can say you are illogical for sharing an experience.

But someone who is sceptical would ask many questions.

You are mixing scepticism (or doubt) with logic.

The questions posed are directed at your knowledge of the Subject of discussion which is God.

You said you saw God or experienced God tell us how you come about this knowledge. The questions are to know the fact/truth of the story(not to test your understanding of logic).

And since you said these experiences are special to you, I don't see why you should get frustrated when others are asking the right questions.

Is it that you can't explain or prove it? Well, if it isn't objective then, and God is in your mind only. Not in other minds.

Am I making sense now?

What makes you so sure it was God, and not Allah or Zeus or Lucifer that you experienced?

Lack of substantial evidence indicates lack of knowledge. All knowledge claims are supported by evidences and proofs which are concrete.

Since logic is the (inbuilt) way of reasoning for all men, how come logic fails the average person when it comes to something as basic as knowing if God exists or not.

"Logic is the Instructional part of Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding, given by God, to operate and balance The God given Conscience in us". The Atheists don't know this definition. And so cannot exercise their cunningness to balance their conscience and develop their imagination. This makes them mad citizens on Planet Earth.

it's surprising to see atheists accusing theists of suspending their use of logic when it comes to matters relating to their religious beliefs, but do not have a problem with the belief system that suggests that everything has a cause......... except the universe.

Re: If logic is "the how to reason" inbuilt in men how come atheists contradict by Ranchhoddas: 7:56pm On Dec 16, 2016

Atheism is simply the lack of belief in deities, understanding the Universe is not part of it. No atheist(at least none that I know) claim to be the only 'user of logic'(whatever than means) in understanding anything. Secondly...

Knowledge of the existence of God or otherwise is not ''basic'' in any sense of word. If it were, we would not have atheists, agnostics, deists, pantheists, panentheists, etc. We also would not also have the thousands of religions that we have, all with their different conceptions of the Almighty. So you see, your queries are founded upon wrong premises. Sorta...

Spiritual encounter or personal experience does not counter logic.

So if i encounter a divine being, ignoring and pretending i didnt will be logical to you?

. Encounter what?? U are jst suffering from indoctrination
