i think you've used the word logically too loosely, because there is a perfectly logical reason

Nobody ever said they believed in god because of logic, people believe in him I think because they want something to fill in some holes in their lives, and having something to believe in, knowing in your heart that someone cares is a good eniough reason to believe,

Exactly. People believe in god, because they sometimes need something higher and more powerful to believe in then themselves or a different leader. To me that's perfectly logical, though not believable.

Feeling like something is there isn't the same as experiencing it.

Thus, 'feeling' like God's there is not proof for his existence.

as it is right now, the y guy arguing pro-science are no better than those for pro-intelligent design
neither has any more proof than theories and calculations
and if argument is all you need to proves the existence of something, then surely neither has the higher ground

Irrefutable evidence is all you need to prove the existence of something; science has it by the bucketload, all religion has are unsubstantiated doctrines.

if you believe logic is correlated, or even identical, to validity, you've got some philosophy classes to take.

I'm an agnostic. There is logic.. sort of..

If God exists, he can exist outside of logic because he would be omnipotent.

That would be why, generally speaking, it's stupid to attempt to convince someone that your beliefs are the correct ones.
