I guess you are headed toward the "faith" topic... The Bible says people must believe in God by faith. "It is by Faith you have been saved..." So, if I don't believe by Faith, but by reason... then can I still be saved? I would then have more faith in these experts and my own reasoning abilities than the Bible and the preachers. Would God accept my belief? If not, why? He want's me to irrationally believe? Then why did he create me to be such a logical/rational being? And, if he would accept my belief based on reason, then why doesn't he give more supporting evidence for me and rational people like me... so that we too might be saved from eternal damnation.

OK... not sure if that's where you're going... but, there ya go. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
