LOGICAL BOUNDARIES

Can religion be reasoned? Yes.
Can God be reasoned? Yes.

If God and religion, or anything for that matter, including Metaphysics, cannot be reasoned, then we will not be able to know the existence of God, realize the truth of religion, and perceive the truth of reality between dimensions.

Why can all of this be reasoned? Although not on a true scale, it can be understood on a smaller scale, through the detection of traces of its truth.

The forms of religious rituals have their own logic, in the sense that their relevance can be understood, but we just haven't comprehended it yet.

Logic to be Explored

Being able to reason includes being able to seek its relevance, not just following everyday life standards.

Understanding the correct ethical perspective is also part of reasoning.

Logic is a structure, being able to reason means being able to see the underlying structure of a reason.

Plausible - Logical

When there is a connection of benefits, there is something logical there.

Something logical doesn't necessarily have to come from a function of thinking. Because something is logical due to a connection. Whether it's a connection of benefits or a connection of patterns, as long as there is a traceable connection, there is something logical there.

Subjective & Objective

Many are trapped in understanding "don't use feelings, but use logic to be objective" ❌

As long as a situation can be traced psychologically or mathematically, it already shows a logical connection.

It is necessary to differentiate between what is logical and what is not, in order to avoid easily condemning subjectivity that can be seen objectively.

What is not logical for one person may be logical for another, but in a different context. So if we can see the connection through empathy and still within the appropriate perspective and context, then even emotionally, we have found a logical connection that brings benefits.

Although we may not know the logic behind a ritual, God knows the logic behind it.

The fact that something has its benefits implies a cause-and-effect relationship that affirms a traceable structure (in logic), but we just don't know the cause-and-effect relationship that can be understood from everyday life.

Limits of Logic

However, it does not mean that logic is limitless. There are limits to logic. Where are these limitations? They lie in the inability to reason beyond the context. Once the context is understood, it becomes easier to comprehend.

Another limitation is the inability to fully grasp the truth. There will always be limitations due to the imperfection of our perceptual work, influenced by mutually limiting conditions.

✅ So, do not confine logic only to thoughts. Empathy or contemplation is one way of reasoning (tracing more beneficial relevant connections) that broadens its perspective.

Another limitation of logic is when it is limited to the extent of thoughts tracing connections in a situation.

✅ However, the limitations of reasoning can be expanded when reasoning is actually done through experience.

And because our experiences are also limited, that's where our understanding of the limitations of reasoning lies, namely the limitations of thought and the limitations of our experiences, all of which are only about tracing the traces of their truth.

❇️ But can we reason the Essence of God? NO, BECAUSE GOD IS BEYOND DIMENSIONS

✅ And we cannot reason other things beyond the limits of our understanding and we cannot reason other things beyond the limits of our experiences

✅ SO DON'T JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE PHILOSOPHICAL, THEN LIMIT THE CONCEPT OF "WHAT IS LOGICAL" ONLY TO THINKING. Because guidance is also a package of a logical structure that can be accepted as conscious thought or conscious feeling, all of which still fall under logic because they can trace the consistency of the connection of the situation (occurrence / wisdom).

✅ That's how logic should be approached without limiting it, which only further distances from the logic of religion.
