Atheism Abandoning Logic

The period of the "Enlightenment" and atheism promised to show how faith, particularly faith in Jesus the Christ is illogical. They proposed to do this by clear objective scientific proof and good logic in coming to a clear conclusion that there is no God. I like a good debate and a challenge toward truth. If God exists, then he exists and I would be a fool not to accept this if it is true. In the same way, if God does not exist and I turn a blind eye to something that is obviously not true, I would be a fool. A scientist is not being forceful just because he states his findings that water freezes at 32 degrees. He may think one is a fool for saying it is not true simply because I choose not to believe it, and the scientist would be right. However, the enlightenment has had two hundred years to prove their point and they have failed. After such a time and finding that their logic has failed, they have come to a different tactic; emotions. All truth is no longer based on objective truths found in concrete science, but rather in fleeting emotions. "Quick! cover your eyes, maybe nobody will see!" I am not trying to force somebody to believe, I just think it is foolish to deny logic, just because the outcome is not to ones liking. True clear and critical thinking demands that one look at truths we do not like. That is how civilization grows. So what happens when a society rejects this logic and replaces it with of all things, mere emotions?

Emotions are not the Reality Itself.

I was talking one day to a man who believed that emotions were the foundation to all reality. He also said that the truly intelligent person can reconcile contradictions. They can handle it. My view on this is that this is simply a form of denial to justify morally the alternative lifestyle he was living. It is obvious that science could never advance if emotions determined the truth. My emotions cannot make water freeze at 50 degrees. In the moral realm, If homosexuality is OK today, maybe it will not be tomorrow. If a terrorist feels it is good to terrorize, what is to stop him? If a rapist wants to rape, what is to stop him? If a homosexual hates me and wants to put me in jail, what is there to stop him?
