Jack, You started out by telling Archrelos he was wrong, but it seems to me that you are both suggested pretty much the same thing. Perhaps you misread one of his words.
Or perhaps your point is that theists, being faith based, have no capacity for logical thinking or that they will always, ultimately, abdicate logical thinking in favor of faith based thinking.
I agree that theists will always, ultimately, abdicate logical thinking in favor of faith based thinking, as long as they are traditional theists. Because if they didn’t, they couldn’t very well be traditional theists.
But people are people first. Theism is just one of their conceptions. How and what people conceptualize is subject to change. I think we agree on that, also, as both you and Achrelos point out the impracticality of attempting to influence theists’ conceptions by aggressively pointing out the flaws of those conceptions.
