…has this to say in response to my assertion that we can’t survive without reason.

What human being survives without reason? – your argument is just an ambiguous oxymoron. Who is not practical? Except, being practical means we have to define what practical is. If something works, we have to define what “works” means – it is NOT independent of us – that would be totalitarianism. You cannot explain everything (or anything) ever – and that is why we have religion. You cannot explain the origin of the universe, life, or why we are here. Stop being so arrogant !!!!!!!

Because, as we all know, religion does such a good job at explaining things. Like that intelligent design theory that sounds conspicuously similar to its scientific counterpart (except for that last little bit).
