So that is the logical argument for God's existence!" But you seem not to have one. It seems you just felt like believing in God due to some emotional experience, and on a whim, did so.

Logic is ultimately just organized thought. Its scope of usage goes beyond merely understanding the world but also into the realm of philosophical questions (such as the existence of god, the nature of consciousness, etc). To be illogical is to be unthinking, driven by emotion and instinct.

Be careful not to lump everything non-religious together. Science, logic, math... they're not one and the same.



Actually, religion is a topic of study in science. Religion is an observable phenomenon and as such, science can model it. The claims of religions, on the other hand, are either A) supported by science, B) shown to be inconsistent with observations, or C) deemed out of the scope of science.

In the case of A, there aren't any issues. In the case of B, this is where science and religion clashes the most: Religious people tend to prefer the facts of their faith over the facts of the senses, whereas scientists always favor the observed facts over current beliefs. In the case of C, if you want science to find you answers, give up: It can't. Science will never prove that God exists, unless he makes himself observable.
