 Logic
In regards to logic:
Logic is not always a reliable method of ordering our thoughts to uncover the truth. In fact, many times, logic is nothing but an after the fact rationalization that starts with a preordained conclusion and reconstructs all the premises necessary to support the so called logical conclusion. I highly reccomend Bill McKees book, "Is Objectivity Faith?" In it, he explains how preconceptions do not randomly or haphazardly distort our perceptions, but rather cunningly model our perceptions to confirm the preconception itself. If you presume an objective universe, that is how you always relate to it.
