This is a great and legitimate question. Much of misunderstanding of any ancient text and the Bible in particular is either a lack of understanding of the context, language, or history, or an interjection of human thought by placing our own cultural presuppositions onto ancient people or situations. So, to answer the question, we study the entirety of the history, language, and context including how the message fits in context with the entirety of the message while restraining ourselves from placing unrealistic modern ideas onto ancient history. I hope that helps.

There's two reasons he's still around. One is that he's entertainment fodder for this sort of thing. A completely irrational and easily debunked position rather than the usual bland religious defenders. The other reason is that he apparently has the mentality of a petulant child and not only is he completely unable to have a civil debate but is visibly annoyed by the allowance of the opinions of others. I'm just glad he's not a politician. Every one of these things he's involved his start with him having this arrogant look on his face as if he had some massive zinger. Then, by the end, the expression changes to annoyance and almost sulking once his weak argument has been picked apart. Half way through a debate his only tactic is to try to stop the other person from making a point.

This is why in reality Sye is always winning because no one can establish a better basis for the laws of logic outside of God. Because you don't have logic without God. The only reason why humans have their logic is because of God. If you have a basis for the origin of logic, outside of God, then please comment below. Definitely interested to hear other perspectives.

Because that would be absurd. It is our position that rejecting God leads one to absurdity. We satisfy the preconditions necessary for intelligibility, where the atheist does not. If almighty God doesn’t reveal things to us such that we can know them for certain, no one can know anything. Unless one knows everything(or have revelation from someone who does) they cannot know anything, because what they don’t know can contradict what they think they know. We appeal to all knowing God who reveals things to us such that we can know them for certain, the atheist appeals to his admittedly fallible senses and reasoning that he admits he could be wrong about.

Matt Williams so shouldn't be really easy for you to disputed his logic? If there is no God no one made your brain so you can not justify t working properly. It is very simple, you can not make sense of reality. If I told you a watch was just thrown together by magnets and shaking around in a delivery truck, would you put your life on the line that the time that watch reads is accurate? Would you defend that time on that watch with your life? Probably not, however if a Rolex and smart phone and cable tv ALL showed the same time and you had the lifetime opportunity of the best job interview, which watch would you rely on to make it to the interview on time? I know everyone would rely on the brand manufacturer Rolex iPhone and cable tv, NOT some watch that is made by accident and unreliable. Same with our brain if it is formed by chance and time or an all knowing creator I am going with trusting an all knowing creator.

No, since you don't know what is truth, you don't have any standard to say someone is arrogant.. Sye argument is to show all reasoning that excluding God is absurd and logically cannot know absolute truth and what is right what is wrong, what is real.. Sye method is called presupositional argument, and this argument not evidence based, this is philosofical argument, its a worldview. Basically sye is fight his worldview againts atheistic worldview. to see which worldview can explain reality more consistent and logic.

Sye admitted the notion that PA is circular, but I think that is a misunderstanding on his part: Actually, because we PAs don't argue to the existence of God as our conclusion, our argumentation is definitely linear, not circular. If we argued that "God exists, therefore God exists," then yes, that would clearly be circular. However, that is not an argument that any PA uses. Rather, we use such arguments as the following: God exists, therefore logic exists. God exists, therefore morality exists. God exists, therefore knowledge exists. God exists, therefore truth exists. None of our arguments is circular because we don't arrive at God as our conclusion in any case.

His little parable about carbon 14 dating and the scientist who wouldn't do carbon dating of a bone that was claimed to be millions of years old because carbon 14 dating "Doesn't go back that far" is used by Bruggencate as an example of the scientist making an excuse to avoid it proving that it wasn't that old. Mr Bruggencate, carbon 14 dating is only good for going back 50,000 years, it is a scientific fact. Just about everything else he said was also either dishonest or irrational.

Jack Horner the athiest & paleontologist WANTS their to be nothing to support a young verdict on a T Rex bone . Sye the Christian WANTS a carbon 14 test to show a young verdict on a T Rex bone . And Sye is saying evidence is useless because man becomes the judge and God goes on trial. His arguement is sound and quite reasonable , but athiest people dont like it for emotional reasons. Code in DNA / RNA is another example ....christian scientists says Code is evidence for intelligent design . Athiest scientists say Code is evidence for millions of years of unguided random chance & natural selection. the scientist puts himself in the judges seat and God goes on trial. I believe evidence will always lean to an opinion or judgement based on a presupposition before the evidence is evaluated . I believe it because very few genuine Christians turn athiest and very few athiests turn Christian. A very small % of a population changes their worldview.

The lack of a basis for induction in an atheistic worldview isn't in debate or even in question as it has been acknowledged as a problem by the world's most renowned atheists. Science has been hijacked as an anti-theistic thing whereas it was founded by Christians and only possible through the use of the laws of nature and logic, which are unfounded in an atheistic worldview. The point is that Jack Horner refused to do the test in case the test invalidated his worldview. Mormons at BYU have had the arrogance to conduct tests on DNA, history, etc... which ended up disproving Joseph Smith and they continue to ignore the facts that they learned through their own tests which is mind-boggling.

Do christian even read the bible they say they believe in? If your not going to talk about your bible with no-believer why Elijah even bother to defended the worship of the Jewish god over that of the Canaanite deity Baal? Also a judge can be put on trial and they aren't above the law . So the idea You can't ask for evidence because only god is judge doesn't work also you show evidence to the jury. Even more important: Can't god prove to everyone it's real? If it already did, why there are so many denomination of Christianity alone, not even adding all the different religion around the world? Presupposition apologetic are fanatics Christians. They don't even want to prove other Christians why they know. They want others christian to believe in then, they are false Prophets that believe themselves to be voice of god.

It's funny though, cause you also fail to realise that morality based on god, is still based on a mind and therefore definitionally subjective. And even if his god was real, we still don't know what the moral action is on the vast majority of cases since we don't have access to the mind of god. Say you see a guy killing another one? How can you say that the action was immoral? What if it was part of god's plan for the greater good? You can't. So for every action, a Christian can't really determine whether it's moral or immoral. Great moral system you have

Additionally, ex nihilo (or, as you put it, "nothing made something") is a CHRISTIAN argument, not a scientific one - there isn't a "nothing" in the philosophical sense which we can observe. As for "life from non-life," that's abiogenesis right there. The Miller-Urey experiments showed that the building blocks for life can emerge from non-living chemicals. Building on Miller and Urey's work, in fact, Sidney Fox directly demonstrated that amino acids can be formed from inorganic compounds. As for "intelligence from non-intelligence," simple organisms evolved into more complex organisms with brain cells and self-awareness, and in time into the animal kingdom, of which humanity is a part.

Because alot of people assume that when I say god reveals that I heard some voice." So Sye is saying he doesn't believe in divine revelation outside the bible. That means he's not a true christian. Almost every christian says god spoke to them or that they know god exists because of a revelation outside the bible. So if Sye is saying he's a true christian , he's calling all other christians liars that claim to have a divine revelation outside the bible. And this demonstrates that there is no consistent idea of what or who god is by anyone including all christians.

Though there was never a mention by the Christian to encourage others to do that. If I was a Buddhist, shouldn't I be trying to follow the teachings of Buddha? So why would a Christian not encourage others to follow the teachings of Jesus?

"What he's basically saying is, "God, you bow to me before I bow to you. That is not the god of the bible."" I feel like this underlines a major flaw in the Judeo Christian ethic. It is philosophy of egocentric worship of a male all-powerful deity. In other words, it is the definition of the male-dominated, ego-based hierarchy. It is the concept of centralized power in a form which demands it be bowed to and refuses to bow back. Any god of true power or "moral character" would not need validation through the trembling submission of his creations. It is a god, who, by proclomation of these christians, cannot stand a blasphemer to even QUESTION any part part of this proposed system. This reveals this simple concept of god to be nothing higher than a child above an anthill, glaring down upon his subjects, magnifying glass in hand, malicious, power-hungry grin across his lips, who becomes cruel beyond all other standards of cruelty when his questionable moral hierarchy is not adhered to. This god, fashions himself above humility, too good to bow first out of respect for his creations so that they may bow back, is not one who should be worshipped and idolized, but one that should recognized as a basis for the line of thinking behind every act of malicious cruelty in the last several millenia. Respect must be given to be received. Any god who is unwilling to bow to his inferiors is too fearful of his own inequities to be considered a god.

This guys obviously clueless about scripture.. there were no "Christians" in the old testament.. Hense, Christ had not been born, died, and resurrected. But let's go along with it for topical discussion. Slavery for the Israelites in the "old testament," was not forced slavery. People who were "slaves," we're slaves by choice, and did not want to be free. This was a way of life for the culture. Slave owners were not cruel, nor did they beat and abuse them. They were part of the family. A true slave of the old testament knew that their family had absolutely NO chance of survival apart from their masters helping. Period. Slavery was welcomed and instituted as beneficial for those that were slaves, either because of poverty, thrives who broke the law and were required to repay in slave labor, people who escaped corrupt societies and other corrupt slavery situations, or where their cites were plundered recently because the people of their tribe had worshiped and sacrificed children to pagan gods, practiced divination, or cult beliefs, which God warned them for hundreds of years to repent of, lest He allow judgement to come upon them by the hands of the tribes of Israel. It's all wrong and hateful only when God sees fit to destroy a people group that opposes HIM, but an athiest will condone abortion which has killed over 56 million innocent babies, or feel that Hitler was not wrong, based upon societal votes for their leader.. Now, you may not believe all that, but with out a transcendent moral law giver, you can't give reasons why Hitler was wrong, why pedophilia is wrong, why murder is wrong, why God was wrong.. blah blah blah.. in the athiest worldview, we're all just matter in motion. Why is it "wrong," for one piece if star dust to kill other star dust? Without God, thats all athiest really claim we are? Star dust.. Matter - in motion.. No such thing as a piece of dirt having morality right? Right.. so shut up and stop your whining if that's really your worldview. Dirt can't be right or wrong.. But because you are created by God, you do have these feelings of moral justification. Without God, your reduced to absurdity.

You seem to be not paying attention what Sye says. God is necessary precondition for intelligibility (we know Him through revelation He gave to everyone) but He also revealed Himself on multilevel venues (creation, biblical prophecies, resurrection etc). So the starting point is not assumption but revelation. I would compare it to awareness of our consciousness. Can you prove to me that you do have consciousness? Can you put an evidence of it on the table? No, but you have this internal conviction/experience. In a similar way everyone knows that God exists. As far as your second question. Do you know that the term fool in the Bible means something different than in contemporary English (or Polish, when we talk about my native language). It is not a stupid person it may describe very intelligent and highly educated person. But fool in the Bible is the person who knows the truth but decides to suppress this truth and act against it for his/her own peril. In such sense atheist is a fool. Now tell me what is your understanding of knowledge? How would you define it?

Hi, Sye does not confuses what atheism is with what some atheists believe. What irritates atheists is that when he quotes what the Bible talks about knowledge of any atheists. They assume that them and only them have direct access to their mental capacities. But they are wrong. You even do not know 100% objectively your own self. But God does and He said that all people know that He exists. So I not only claim that God is real but also that you very well know that He exists. However you suppress this truth what makes you guilty. To know anything you are pushed into infinite regress of justifications of justifications of a given claim. The only way to get out of it is either to have all knowledge (for example that you are not in a matrix) or have revelation from the one who knows everything. Thus without God you know nothing. If you know anything it is either by or through revelation from Him. We are not talking about absolute certainty. You do not have (as Sye likes to say) even 0.000001 % certainty. You even do not know if you really exist. You may be an experiment with artificial consciousness a product of some electrodes feeding AR into an artificial brain (with your virtual friends with whom you interact as long as somebody pulls the plug). If you believe in evolution you believe that your consciousness "popped out" of the complexity of human brain. Why then intelligent bio-engineers wouldn't be able to construct an artificial consciousness? And guess, maybe you are the one! The only method of discovering the truth is to start with God and he Christian worldview. People in other worldviews may discover some truths but only by being inconsistent with their one and borrowing from our worldview.

To claim that you know that God exists in spite of your denial of that is not insulting you. It is stating what God's Word says about you and all other people. You just wrongly assume that there is no one else who knows your thought better then you do. I do not need to demonstrate that God is real or the Bible is His Word. Just answering me in this thread you have to presuppose that. Otherwise you have no basis for intelligent exchange. Or do you? Now about circularity. Of course when it comes to the ultimate authority the circular argument is unavoidable. Do you think that you are free from this issue? Try to prove your rationality! By necessity you will appeal to... well, rationality. But your argumentation ends up in a vicious circle while mine has a rescue device. God's revelation which assures us about existence of God. He revealed Himself on many levels. One level deals with historic facts. To skeptics of His days Jesus said that no sign will be given to them (they were demanding a sign from Him) but the sign of Jonah (this refers to Jesus burial and subsequent resurrection ). If you try to tone down your bias against God and check facts about resurrection you may be persuaded. If you stay in rebellious attitude you can always find odd historians who will give you "basis" to reject this miracle. He also reveals Himself in our souls. He put eternity into our hearts. I guess you understand this metaphoric language. You would not have these higher longings in your heart if you were just product of evolution. Etc. Romans 1:18-21 states that everyone knows that God exists: Rom 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, Rom 1:19 because the thing which may be known of God is clearly revealed within them, for God revealed it to them. Rom 1:20 For the unseen things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being realized by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, for them to be without excuse. Rom 1:21 Because, knowing God, they did not glorify Him as God, neither were thankful. But they became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Have a deep moments of thinking :)

Mick, not so long ago you wrote that when I say that I know what you know is insulting you . Now you keep insisting that I am wrong. Do you try to insult me? If you claim that God's Word is wrong then you have to have standard which allows you to discern what is true/right from what is wrong. What is this standard in your worldview? Of course I quote the Bible because it is ultimate authority. And you want me to demonstrate that God exist? Aren't you committing category confusion error? God is not a part of our temporal reality. So He cannot be measured with an instrument like radioactive radiation for example. However you know that He exist. So it is pointless to try to demonstrate what is obvious to both of us. Now your psychoanalysis of my state of mind is so faulty that you wouldn't feed your family if you enter such profession. I just skipped one of your question otherwise our discussion will undergo snowball effect. I can answer it if you are curious. From my perspective I can be sure that both of us exist but we perceive - although the same world - however with different spin. Since you suppress the truth about God your thinking becomes more and more futile and your mind is darkened. However from the perspective of your worldview you can't even know if you really exist! How funny, you wrote: "I know , if you enter a debate about the existence of God , you've already acknowledged god does not exist!" First of all I haven't enter any debate about God's existence since both of us know that He exist. Second, it does not follow that God does not exist. With you it is other way around. Since you do not have any justification for meaning, truth, laws of logic etc. in your framework then you depend on my worldview to even attack my worldview. So any discussion you undertake presuppose existence of intelligent God-Creator. Listen again the opening example Sye gave. How would debate about existence of words look like?

It seems like the rest of these KZfaqrs don't get it.. I wonder why.. Lol. If your going to answer the fool, who has no ultimate justification of morality, reason, logic.. then you can only answer him with foolish answers. For all he knows, he could be a brain in a vat. The atheist already will agree with you that they could be wrong about everything they claim to know, in turn, they give up knowledge. If the atheist say, there is no God, but I could be wrong, does He know It? Nope. The thing is, is that they do know that God exist, yet they suppress the truth of God, because they don't want to face a moral, condemning God, who will judge sin by His righteous standard. God has made it know to them clearly by the splendor of creation alone. God has already written His existence on their conscience, so they are without excuse on the day of judgement.

Sye IS the fool with his folly. Sye can't prove God exists, and neither can you. We Atheists don't definitely claim God doesn't exist. We disbelieve the claim that God exists because THERE IS NO EVIDENCE to back it up. This is what presuppositionalists like you don't get - we're not making an absolute claim. We're REJECTING YOUR ABSOLUTE CLAIM.
