I'm not sure what it would mean to sense without senses or think without a mind. It's a little like asking someone to walk without feet.

It is in this moment that separates believers from unbelievers. Will you realize your powerlessness before the grandeur of this universe and its possibilities?

I am part of the grand universe--I don't feel powerless I feel immensely empowered to be a part of it. And my most magnificent tools happen to be my mind and senses... so I'd rather not toss them out the window.

Or will you cling hard to your own sense and logic?

Whatever other source of knowledge would I have, and why should I allow it to contradict my senses and logic?

Saying some things like God "just are" and some things like science must have further explanation is not only inadequate, but contradictory.

So you, too, see something wrong with contradictions. Do you accept logic then? In fact I don't see how you can form an argument of any kind if you don't "cling" just as much to logic and the senses as we do.
