    You have to humble yourself enough to acknowledge that there are some things which you don't understand. Then humble yourself further to accept that what you don't understand might possibly be caused by something greater than yourself. From there you make choices, whether to retreat from the idea of a higher power or seek to satisfy your curiosity about it.

    Who says you have to? My logical thinking is what brought me to faith in God and Christ. You should go watch that new movie The Case for Christ, I think you're missing something very important here.

    I've always wondered how otherwise rational, well-adjusted people toss all that out the window when it comes to belief in the supernatural.

    Inferring the existence of an infinitely more complex 'creator' in order to explain the existence and complexity of the universe is redundant (at best).

    The gospel is not a reasonable proposition to begin with. The Apostle Paul says the preaching of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing (1 Corinthians 1:18). In this cynical, skeptical world, believing in any of God’s miraculous works—from the creation of the world to the resurrection of His Son, and everything between—qualifies as laughable foolishness. A gospel devoid of such offending foolishness is no gospel at all.

    One simply accepts the fact that neither logic, nor one's own comprehensive ability are up to the task of comprehending God

    Only a fool would think he was capable

    so, stop being a fool

    The same way one dispenses with logic in order to make vacation plans.

    Why would you make plans for something that isn't guaranteed to happen?
