If god granted 'reason' translates into men getting to decide what god is for or against.....then why do men so often disagree on this topic?
This is because men approach God from their own perspective. And this is due to the subjective nature of humanity.
You're subjective. You're part of humanity. So you would be subject to all of the factors that results so consistently in invalid interpretions.
Why then would I accept your subjective, perspective based interpretations of 'god' as anything more than another invalid interpretation?
Which is why Religion is so critical to the development of Civilization. As the pursuit of an understanding of God, which is to say the pursuit of the truth, has developed the means for humanity to reason OBJECTIVELY... .
Some have reasoned that the means to do so represents the Spirit of God itself; OKA: The Holy Spirit.
But the religious people that disagree with you say that they are similarly guided directly by God. And by your own reasoning, they're self deluded souls who cling to fallacies and hallucinations.
So why are your claims be any different than theirs? Given the fact that by your own logic the reasoning of 'faith' has a record of almost perfect failure, wouldn't it be much more likely that you are among the self deluded? By your own standards, wouldn't it be a near certainty that you were?
And of course, why would ANY of you have to have gotten it right? Couldn't you all be self deluded?
Examples of sub-humanity, such as yourself, lack the spirit, thus you lack the means to so much as reason soundly, let alone objectively.
You're offering us your subjective feelings that you say are the 'holy spirit' as objective truth. Um, I don't think objective means what you think it means.
Your faith is not 'objective'. Your faith is inherently subjective.
