Besides the obvious problems of trying to prove that laws of logic exist, I also find it endlessly fascinating how theists 'prove' the existence of something so abstract that it's meaningless to even discuss its form (i. e. 'something which is the cause of all movement in the universe' or 'something from which moral originates') and then expect you to make an immediate jump into believing their very specific and narrow interpretation of it (i. e. Christian God). And if you don't. you are a heretic condemned to Hell or something.

I was just googling a symbol of trinity to attach to my post, but by accident I found a comic by a frustrated Christian which is an even better illustration of this mess.
