    I’m not using the Bible. I’m using the Transcendental Argument.

    Math is just our understanding of how the universe works. Logic is just our description of how to correctly reason.

    Okay. If these things are just descriptors then they aren’t universally true. If they exist and are universally true then you have no account for how that is the case. Either way you are using immaterial, metaphysical concepts to make the case that things that are immaterial and metaphysical don’t exist.

      Math and logic will work the same even if some alien civilization discovered them.

      They are just how things work. We just happened to be intelligent enough to figure out how to use them to further our goals.

      Why are you so hung up on repeating /restating the same arguement? You seem to be getting into an OODA loop.
