Hey Doul,

I'm not really at all sure what you mean <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shrug.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/scratch1.gif" alt="" />, and I don't want to guess and risk turning you into a straw man. I'll leave it alone for now, and just add that logic is an essential tool that God has given us to be able to understand His Word and just about everything else in the world. Yes, the Wisdom and Truth of God's Word are foolishness to those who are perishing, but it is fallen man who is illogical, not God or His Word. We need to be born of the Spirit and have the Spirit dwelling inside us and renewing our mind through the Word in order to understand and apprehend the truths of God's Word; but, the Spirit will never lead us to an understanding or interpretation that contradicts logic, since logic reflects the structure and nature of the Mind of God. If you want to pursue this any further I suggest beginning a new thread. But in my opinion Pilgrim is not being Spock-like but Christ-like in calling a brother to be accountable to the laws of logic.
