Are Theists Illogical for Believing in God?

[pinkocommie]

But it is more logical.  

[Tank]

I believe in God because I don't want to go to Hell. What could be more logical than that?

Logic is fine however the precepts you are basing it on God and Hell are unfounded so your logic, while technically accurate, is useless. Logic is a tool, not an end in itself.

[Thumpalumpacus]

Logic has limitations.  Disregard them at your own risk.

I agree Thumpalumpadump. Logic is very limited. Some logic can even cost you your immortal soul. Do you know how many times the word logic appears in the KJV1611? You guessed it: none!

Any port in a storm.

Billy Bob Jenkins, since you like logic so much, tell me logically why would the "allmighty and allmercyfull god" send you to hell for not believing in his existence?

"I write letters to Santa to ensure I get what I want for Christmas." <------ Equally logical.
