  "content": "Atheism’s Illogic and the Origin’s Divinity by Maclain Hunter: \n\nDefinitions: \n\nGod (or “Theos” in Greek): The Origin of Existence.\n\nDivine: God-like or of/from God (Origin)\n\nOrigin: The cause of something and reason that it exists.\n\nReason (or “Logos” in Greek): The Standard of Logic and reasoning. The Rational Fabric of Rationality.\n\nLogic: The Method of Reasoning and means of knowing Reality through coherent Reason and reasoning.\n\nProof: A demonstration of Truth (coherent with Reason) through valid arguments and evidence. \n\nEvidence: A piece of data or an argument built on facts that demonstrates a/another fact objectively.\n\nAtheism: The position that there is no God or gods; The disbelief in God or any gods.\n\nTheism: The position that there is a God (in monotheism) of gods (in logically incoherent polytheist systems that fail to unify the Universal Cause in their theory as Logic/Cause requires for coherence); The belief in the Divine Logos, or some God or gods.\n\nMonotheism: A theistic system based on the belief or knowledge that the Origin (God) is one (coherent) and cannot be many or incoherent. \n\nPremises (Inputs):\n\nP: Necessarily: Reason is Reason, and no “reasons” (in the particular sense) could exist independent of and without the general/universal existence of Reason. Reason (Logos) is the Reason for Existence (Theos). By definition in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) the term God refers to the Origin and Ruler of the Cosmos (the Origin or Foundation of Existence and Reality). \n\nQ: Assume that P and Q were not true and that empiricism or anything in existence contradicted Reason (Logic/Logos), A is A form, or P and Q, that would lead to logical incoherence and inconsistency, and to an Origin of Rationality that was irrational - which is logically untenable and reasonable to dismiss as a valid option upon proper consideration.\n\nR: Necessarily: The Logos is the Source (God) of Existence and the atheist position must deny (even) the Logos (the God of Reason) to maintain its identity and be a disbelief in any and all gods or notions of a Divine (Origin-like/God-like) Origin/God. It’s a logical contradiction in fact for the Origin (the Divine) to NOT be Divine (of, from, or aligned with God/Origin), as that would mean the Origin is not itself and/or aligned with itself, which defies Logic and the three traditional Rules of Logic. \n\nS: Necessarily: An atheist couldn’t highlight “logical inconsistencies” if Logos didn’t exist. That would amount to saying something is “incoherent with nothing” (which is logically equivalent to being coherent with anything and everything).\n\nT: To address counter arguments that rely on sowing seemingly “reasonable doubt” (about the Logos - the rationally necessary God of Reason) by pointing to empiricism or the alleged lack of evidence of Order and Logic in Reality (the Logical Order of Nature) in empirical sciences, I merely need to point to evidence of fine-tuning (Perfect Rational Order (Logos) beyond man’s direct influence or power to create) and the necessary logical analysis of any recovered empirical data, as well as the necessary logical coherence of any results, proof, or evidence derived from empiricism and the sciences. \n\nU: Assume that any or all of the set of premises {P, Q, R, S, T} are invalid and false. That leads to logical contradiction and cannot stand. Logically the premises are unassailable, being based in Reason and consistent Logic and remaining coherent with Reason and consistent with Logic without deviation.\n\nFormal Argument (Proof):\n\n{P, P <-> Q, Q -> R, R -> S, S -> T, T <-> U} |= ((P & Q) & (R & S) & T) & U\n\nConclusion: ((P & Q) & (R & S) & T) & U:\n\nReason is the Reason for Existence, which is what the term God (the Origin and Ruler of the Cosmos; the Supreme Being; the Moral Authority and Standard) refers to in classical theism and in the Oxford English Dictionary. The fact that logically coherent theism aligns with the Logos while atheism must deny the Logos (God of Reason) and the Divinity (Origin-like nature) of the Origin renders atheism untenable and incoherent. \n\nThere is also no lack of empirical support for the Logos and this monotheistic and coherent view. If we assumed that there is no Logos then that leads to contradiction and those who dare challenge that Logic of Reality (Logos - God) by any name are incoherent and are doomed to merely prove the Logos exists by even trying to turn to Logic (Logos) for valid arguments. We need God because we need Reason. \n\nThe word Divine means “God-like” and the word God refers to the Origin, so claiming the Origin is not Divine defies Logic (the God-like Origin - the Self-Consistent Logos - the God of Reason). An “Origin that’s not Divine” is a contradiction, like an “irrational logic” is. \n\nWe cannot abandon God because we have Reason or vice versa that is incoherent and amounts to saying we need the Rational Foundation and don’t need the Rational Foundation which violates logical rules, particularly the Law of the Excluded Middle (but also Identity and Non-Contradiction). \n\nTruth Table:\n\nvalid\n       ↓  ↓   ↓   ↓   ↓   ↓                 ↓  \nPQRSTU⎪P P↔Q Q→R R→S S→T T↔U╞((P&Q)&(R&S)&T)&U\n―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――\nTTTTTT⎪T TTT TTT TTT TTT TTT   TTT T TTT TT TT\nTTTTTF⎪T TTT TTT TTT TTT TFF   TTT T TTT TT FF\nTTTTFT⎪T TTT TTT TTT TFF FFT   TTT T TTT FF TT\nTTTTFF⎪T TTT TTT TTT TFF FTF   TTT T TTT FF FF\nTTTFTT⎪T TTT TTT TFF FTT TTT   TTT F TFF FT FT\nTTTFTF⎪T TTT TTT TFF FTT TFF   TTT F TFF FT FF\nTTTFFT⎪T TTT TTT TFF FTF FFT   TTT F TFF FF FT\nTTTFFF⎪T TTT TTT TFF FTF FTF   TTT F TFF FF FF\nTTFTTT⎪T TTT TFF FTT TTT TTT   TTT F FFT FT FT\nTTFTTF⎪T TTT TFF FTT TTT TFF   TTT F FFT FT FF\nTTFTFT⎪T TTT TFF FTT TFF FFT   TTT F FFT FF FT\nTTFTFF⎪T TTT TFF FTT TFF FTF   TTT F FFT FF FF\nTTFFTT⎪T TTT TFF FTF FTT TTT   TTT F FFF FT FT\nTTFFTF⎪T TTT TFF FTF FTT TFF   TTT F FFF FT FF\nTTFFFT⎪T TTT TFF FTF FTF FFT   TTT F FFF FF FT\nTTFFFF⎪T TTT TFF FTF FTF FTF   TTT F FFF FF FF\nTFTTTT⎪T TFF FTT TTT TTT TTT   TFF F TTT TT FT\nTFTTTF⎪T TFF FTT TTT TTT TFF   TFF F TTT TT FF\nTFTTFT⎪T TFF FTT TTT TFF FFT   TFF F TTT FF FT\nTFTTFF⎪T TFF FTT TTT TFF FTF   TFF F TTT FF FF\nTFTFTT⎪T TFF FTT TFF FTT TTT   TFF F TFF FT FT\nTFTFTF⎪T TFF FTT TFF FTT TFF   TFF F TFF FT FF\nTFTFFT⎪T TFF FTT TFF FTF FFT   TFF F TFF FF FT\nTFTFFF⎪T TFF FTT TFF FTF FTF   TFF F TFF FF FF\nTFFTTT⎪T TFF FTF FTT TTT TTT   TFF F FFT FT FT\nTFFTTF⎪T TFF FTF FTT TTT TFF   TFF F FFT FT FF\nTFFTFT⎪T TFF FTF FTT TFF FFT   TFF F FFT FF FT\nTFFTFF⎪T TFF FTF FTT TFF FTF   TFF F FFT FF FF\nTFFFTT⎪T TFF FTF FTF FTT TTT   TFF F FFF FT FT\nTFFFTF⎪T TFF FTF FTF FTT TFF   TFF F FFF FT FF\nTFFFFT⎪T TFF FTF FTF FTF FFT   TFF F FFF FF FT\nTFFFFF⎪T TFF FTF FTF FTF FTF   TFF F FFF FF FF\nFTTTTT⎪F FFT TTT TTT TTT TTT   FFT F TTT TT FT\nFTTTTF⎪F FFT TTT TTT TTT TFF   FFT F TTT TT FF\nFTTTFT⎪F FFT TTT TTT TFF FFT   FFT F TTT FF FT\nFTTTFF⎪F FFT TTT TTT TFF FTF   FFT F TTT FF FF\nFTTFTT⎪F FFT TTT TFF FTT TTT   FFT F TFF FT FT\nFTTFTF⎪F FFT TTT TFF FTT TFF   FFT F TFF FT FF\nFTTFFT⎪F FFT TTT TFF FTF FFT   FFT F TFF FF FT\nFTTFFF⎪F FFT TTT TFF FTF FTF   FFT F TFF FF FF\nFTFTTT⎪F FFT TFF FTT TTT TTT   FFT F FFT FT FT\nFTFTTF⎪F FFT TFF FTT TTT TFF   FFT F FFT FT FF\nFTFTFT⎪F FFT TFF FTT TFF FFT   FFT F FFT FF FT\nFTFTFF⎪F FFT TFF FTT TFF FTF   FFT F FFT FF FF\nFTFFTT⎪F FFT TFF FTF FTT TTT   FFT F FFF FT FT\nFTFFTF⎪F FFT TFF FTF FTT TFF   FFT F FFF FT FF\nFTFFFT⎪F FFT TFF FTF FTF FFT   FFT F FFF FF FT\nFTFFFF⎪F FFT TFF FTF FTF FTF   FFT F FFF FF FF\nFFTTTT⎪F FTF FTT TTT TTT TTT   FFF F TTT TT FT\nFFTTTF⎪F FTF FTT TTT TTT TFF   FFF F TTT TT FF\nFFTTFT⎪F FTF FTT TTT TFF FFT   FFF F TTT FF FT\nFFTTFF⎪F FTF FTT TTT TFF FTF   FFF F TTT FF FF\nFFTFTT⎪F FTF FTT TFF FTT TTT   FFF F TFF FT FT\nFFTFTF⎪F FTF FTT TFF FTT TFF   FFF F TFF FT FF\nFFTFFT⎪F FTF FTT TFF FTF FFT   FFF F TFF FF FT\nFFTFFF⎪F FTF FTT TFF FTF FTF   FFF F TFF FF FF\nFFFTTT⎪F FTF FTF FTT TTT TTT   FFF F FFT FT FT\nFFFTTF⎪F FTF FTF FTT TTT TFF   FFF F FFT FT FF\nFFFTFT⎪F FTF FTF FTT TFF FFT   FFF F FFT FF FT\nFFFTFF⎪F FTF FTF FTT TFF FTF   FFF F FFT FF FF\nFFFFTT⎪F FTF FTF FTF FTT TTT   FFF F FFF FT FT\nFFFFTF⎪F FTF FTF FTF FTT TFF   FFF F FFF FT FF\nFFFFFT⎪F FTF FTF FTF FTF FFT   FFF F FFF FF FT\nFFFFFF⎪F FTF FTF FTF FTF FTF   FFF F FFF FF FF\n\n",
