Yeah. I agree. He says we are blind, but I would rather be blind to worldly beliefs and values than be blind to the beliefs and values given to us by God. I love this show and the prize money goes to a great cause. I would love to go on this show and play. My chartiy would be St. Judes Children's Hospital.

Religious faith is blind by definition and if logic is one of those "wordly beliefs" you are devaluing, can it be assumed that you generally embrace irrationality in all "wordly" regards or, just as far as religious beliefs are concerned?
