The Baha'i Studies Listserv Stephen, You stated earlier: "If logic and religion conflict, people should side with logic and rationality."
I'd like you to comment on the various views on logic, and the limitations thereof, as presented in the following articles. I would particularly like to know why non-logicians shouldtake logically derived morality and ethics over all other forms. I was unable to find anything in Wikipedia that seemed to apply directly to this question, and therefore have had to rely on the following non-authoritative sources. http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/346240/philosophy-of-logic/36304/Existence-and-ontology http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/logic.htm <http://www.lhup.edu/%7Edsimanek/logic.htm> http://www.slideshare.net/Mahesh3391/limitations-of-logic http://fatfist.hubpages.com/hub/LOGIC-Its-Laws-Premises-and-LIMITATIONS I'm also curious to see whether you find any relevance in the following quote by Tom Naylor: "The bigger the real-life problems, the greater the tendency for the discipline to retreat into a reassuring fantasy-land of abstract theory and technical manipulation."
