Truth determines Truth. You cannot say either faith or logic determine truth. Truth stands by itself. When you speak of faith, there is a natural faith every person exercises every day, based upon earlier observations, and the assumption that as things have been, so they shall continue to be. You get on a #10 bus, because you have gotten on a #10 bus every weekday for the past 5 years, with the expectation it will take you past 1st and Main Street. You don't ask the bus driver every day "will this take me to 1st and Main Street?" You know it will by past experience. If you are talking about Biblical faith, you are talking about something quite different. Biblical Faith is putting your confidence in unobservable assertions bases upon revelations of things unknowable through natural observation, based entirely on the integrity of the One disclosing certain facts to you. As it is written "By faith we know..." Logic is drawing correct inferences based on certain asserted facts. If your premise is false, all of your conclusions will be false. Logic is right reasoning within a closed system of accepted facts of truth.

Truth and logic are determined by what works for you and every one else all the time. Faith is hoping that what you think are truth and logic in your life realy are.

Truth is absolute not subjective. I believe truth is determined by God. Faith and logic are determined by their holder and are subjective. What is logical to one person can be nonsense to another.

you cannot change the truth. faith is just a belief(doesnt have to be the truth, i could have faith that im going to be a movie star), logic is reasoning thats based off of facts and evidence.

Neither. Faith is merely unmerited belief. Logic is merely a systematic way of thinking. Neither requires the search for, examination of and testing of evidence. Scientific method is the way fact is determined, and facts are what matter.

Only logical truths follow from logical enquiry, most truths are not logical truths so the answer is in most cases, neither.

God the Scriptures and the pure representative of God. One actually has to be pure themselves to actually be able to see the truth and they need transcendental logic which leads to actual faith. not whimsical faith. many have faith but that changes as their consciousness changes.

Anything you can have faith in is true, that means anything is true even false things, since you can have faith in anything. Logic says faith is false, but you can have faith in logic so it's true.
I just confused myself...

That's like saying what determines gravity on planet earth. Truth merely is; one's disbelief in it does not negate that it is....neither does belief bring it into existence. God will one day judge the living and the dead, people who mock this event will not keep it from being fufilled.
