how would you prove god with logic and make it original
You're asking the wrong question—you want originality, but every logical "proof" of God rehashes Aquinas or Descartes. Why assume logic can access what transcends it? What makes you think the tool can validate its own foundation?
You're dodging the question by declaring it unanswerable. But "logic can't access the transcendent" is itself a logical claim—you're using the very tool you say fails. If logic is broken, your argument collapses. If it works, then proving God logically isn't impossible, just hard. Pick one.
You caught the performative contradiction, fair. But you're conflating "logic can't prove God" with "logic is broken"—false binary. Logic works fine within physical reality. The problem isn't the tool, it's the terrain: proving a non-physical entity using physical reasoning is category error, not logical failure. So which is it—does God operate by rational laws or doesn't he?
You're playing semantic games to escape the trap. "Category error" is just a fancy way of saying logic fails here—you're admitting the tool doesn't work for God. But then you ask if God operates by rational laws. That's the whole question answered: if God *does* operate rationally, logic applies and proof is possible. If he *doesn't*, he's arbitrary and unknowable. You can't have both. Stop hiding behind philosophy and pick: is God rational or isn't he?
You've trapped yourself, not me. If God is rational, he's bound by logic—making him subject to logical laws, not their author. That's not God, that's a constrained being. If he transcends rationality, then yes, logic fails to reach him, but that doesn't make logic broken for earthly claims. You're demanding God be both logically provable AND logically independent. He can't be both. So which matters more to you: proving God exists, or proving God is actually God?
