Christian Apologetics "Truth" question: Expose the contradiction -Logic does not apply to reality?

Question

I hope you guys will help me out with this question!

sorry.. just take off the question mark at the end of "reality"

Answer 1

Reality is when something exists independently of ideas concerning it. Since logic is the science that investigates the principles governing correct or reliable inference then to logically deduce reality you would have to use the reality of science and the principles that govern it to reach your conclusion. The question falls back on itself and creates a contradictory loop.

Answer 2

There's nothing to expose. The apologetics are making a claim -- "Logic does not apply to reality."

I can easily list a bunch of examples where logic does apply to reality, so they would have to find some convincing counterexamples and submit them as evidence. If they can't do that, then their claim (like all others without evidence) is just an arbitrary assertion.

They may be right... but I would say logic applies, at the very least, to the vast majority of reality.

Answer 3

If you're asking whether or not Logic applies to reality, then:

It must: logic is a part of reality, how we understand and organize reality in a comprehensible way.

Although it is the best tool we have for understanding and applying truths we discover, we must remember our logic is incomplete, and fallible. Should we forget, our ability to reason will stop growing, and the things we understand will become less and less.

Answer 4

that's an extremely huge question. Atheism actually ability 'without god' and on account that maximum human acts of devastation were contained in the call of one god or yet another, this can propose that they seem to be a lot less risky than those with a faith. in case you imagine about it in a extra summary way, atheism promotes free wondering and the alternative to trust what you want without the placement of someone telling you what's genuine with none data. in this kind, many faiths easily promote lack of expertise over expertise. (The reasoning in the back of this lays with early society people attempting to style a possible society that applications properly at the same time. faith is an extremely helpful thanks to attempt this, hence why there are multiple similarities between them). So reckoning on what you propose by damage, in early human society atheism ought to were extra unfavorable to the progression of the human race yet in modern cases (the spectacular one hundred fifty years or so) faith is dropping its position in cutting-edge society.

Answer 5

Reality is relative to an observer. If I observe that logic applies to reality, then it does as far as I'm concerned.

Answer 6

I've taken apologetics courses, I've never heard any statement even similar to that. Don't know where you're getting your info.

Answer 7

The mind cannot fully comprehend reality, it can only project its own thinking on to it.

Answer 8
