>So? You still have to have faith in something, as opposed to being able to use reason all the way. Once you've taken that step, what does it matter which thing you put your faith in?
ALL reasoning BEGINS with faith. Your faith however ACCOUNTS for nothing. All you are saying is 'logic exists because it exists,' hardly an argument.
> So if I want to account for the laws of logic, god is an extra entity that is not needed.
Then how do you account for the laws of logic?
>You, of course, want him to exist
You of course don't want Him to exist because you want to be your own god, and don't like the thought of accountability to Him. If I were to invent a God, it would be one that would let me get away with my sin, not one that must punish sin.
