Evidence & Presuppositionalism
Evidence & presuppositionalism have absolutely nothing to do with each other! Well except that all evidence is God's evidence and so the best use of evidence can be had when an apologist has established their foundation on something that makes sense of them and allows them to exist. The scary thing is that this entails everything in human history and beyond. The non-scary thing is that God is the "everything" and "beyond". John Frame gives us the role of evidence for the presuppositions and warns us what bad apologetics could entail.

Evidence & Presuppositionalism

Evidence & presuppositionalism have absolutely nothing to do with each other! Well except that all evidence is God’s evidence and so the best use of evidence can be had when an apologist has established their foundation on something that makes sense of them and allows them to exist. The scary thing is that this entails everything in human history and beyond. The non-scary thing is that God is the “everything” and “beyond”. John Frame gives us the role of evidence for the presuppositions and warns us what bad apologetics could entail.
