Discussion: Is Religion Illogical?
It is true that we tend to believe what we want to believe and logic might not have a lot to do with it. On the other hand, I know many religious people who are very logical. Is religion really "illogical"? If so, how can so many people, who are otherwise very logical, embrace religion so enthusiastically? Could it be that many religions are largely "logical" but require some "leaps of faith" at certain, critical points?
