"Logic" is overestimated. While teapots orbiting Mars do not have any
real impact on one's worldview, one is well entitled to shift the
burden of proof on monotheists simply because, as Nietzsche clearly
illustrated, the very idea of a Jahvé/Allah/Christian God is a
cultural product whose consequences and implications are unacceptable
for some of us.

Call it a matter of faith... :-)
