Fantastic post by Justin Holcomb on some Van Tillian presuppositional thought: BORROWED ELEMENTS? The non-Christian account of science falters under the weight of numerous internal contradictions. It should be remembered that non-Christians do science (and usually do so very well), but they cannot give an account for the very science they are doing without relying [ READ MORE ]
I am so incredibly thankful for @justinholcomb posting this on The Resurgence. If you are interested in a better understanding of faith, logic, worldviews and reasoning then you need to listen to this debate.
