I can't understand the mind of a theist. Giving up logic and reason for feel good fairy tales seems like a bad trade to me.

This was an interesting conversation to me, and worth reading if you're interested in questions of eternal transcendentals.

The irony is he's walking through a universe of evidence God exists, literally, and it's basic logic that leads a person to notice God exists based on this universe of evidence.

The materialist mindset relieves people of responsibility for their actions. I'm not saying that's what's happening here, but it happens a lot.

The irony is he will live in dissonance, because he'll try to maintain a rational that explains his conscience that will never suffice. Without God he will live in performative contradiction.

the dissonance will be particularly strong since it is willful denial to even explore it.

I see no comments / conversation there. Maybe my relays are misbehaving? Did you reply? Or was it quoted?

There was actually quite a bit of back and forth. I believe it was a beneficial and generally respectful conversation about really important things.
