That you still don’t understand that two sides of a dichotomy can’t be indicative of the same thing is embarrassing.

What does B mean when everything is indicative of it?

Logic is about the form of reasoning, not its content, so you can substitute any proposition for A and B and it would be logically valid, if it is true is another question.

And I’ve only questioned the content, when that content is regarding indication. That a syllogism is valid doesn’t necessitate that its contents can’t render the conclusion to be alogical.

Logic is only about the form of reasoning, so the content (a conclusion) is neither logical nor alogical

Firstly, logical/alogical is a true dichotomy, so a conclusion can’t be neither. Secondly, a connclusion that is epistemically indistinct from its opposite is alogical.

‘God’ is a word that has certain imaginative associations. If you want to explore a universe in which different associations hold (for instance, an unintelligible universe), you might try calling it atheism. It’s not a question of using logic to establish probabilities.

Logic does not deal in probabilities

I mean in the sense of saying, “God probably exists, & so I believe in him.” Ultimately you cannot be certain of anything. Logic does not establish certainty, since it’s merely a ‘good enough’ tool we use to try & decipher the strange phenomena of this world.

Ah, I think Logic is the science of reasoning, it aims to describe the laws of thought, so I think it does certainly and accurately describes Reason

If there is a logos, a Divine reason, human logic is only a very, very poor knock-off of it. Sufficient to allow us to exist & understand to a limited degree, but no more.

You've understood perfectly friend, Reason stands to the Intellect as the Moon to the Sun
