Ben the Agnostic…uh…Atheist…uh…Whatever Means I Don't Have Anything to Prove!
There is a somewhat humorous exchange between Ben and Paul here. I have posted it below. As you can see, Ben has resorted to just sticking his head in the sand with respect to the problem. Ben is aware of the difficulties with defending an atheist position and I think uncomfortable that his agnosticism is likewise untenable. Note again two of his statements from my debate with him and tell me if he has a clue what his position even is.
“I’m an agnostic, in particular, of the negative atheist variety, by which I mean that I
neither believe … -

Should Presuppositionalists Be Taken Seriously?
While digging through ancient discussions on the Internet concerning presuppositional apologetics I came across what is posted below. It is written by an “ex-Van Tilian” who is a friend of mine, and though I do not endorse what is said in the post (at least not all of it) it may be of some interest, provide a critical look at this method from another perspective, or provide fodder for future posts. Enjoy.
…Allow me to offer a theistic perspective on this issue (of whether presuppositionalists should be taken seriously).
I believe that if they really want to be “taken seriously”

(Sort of) A Debate Announcement
Some of the readers may not know about a “counter apologetics” podcast called “Truly Free” or “Goodness Over God” by Ben Wallis and Michael Long. It is available at http://goodnessovergod.blogspot.com
Readers are familiar with Ben Wallis already (or if you are not, then Search for his name on our site), but probably not Michael Long. Michael is another well-spoken unbeliever and holds an MA in Philosophy. Some clips of Michael from the podcast are included below. Make sure to listen to them in their entirety, or else you will miss an important announcement at the end. You may also be …

Wallis Responds to Knapp's Atheist Burden of Proof
Recall that Brian Knapp recently wrote a post here on the subjects of atheism and the burden of proof.
Ben Wallis has responded here.
While I only skimmed Ben’s post, it looks as though he offers the same (toasty) objections that were addressed here and especially here.
If not, then at least the readers have some background for the discussion. Hopefully Brian will have the opportunity to add more.

Choosing Hats Celebrates Three Years!
Choosing Hats was founded by Brian Knapp and Chris Bolt in July of 2008 in an effort to promote Van Tilian presuppositional apologetics at an introductory level and free of charge on the Internet. Late July/early August marks three years for Choosing Hats.
Below you will find some “highlights” from the last three years. These are by no means what everyone would consider highlights, and some will require some more digging to finish reading, but we hope that the list below will at the very least whet your appetite to continue reading through our archives and following our site in …

Praxis Presup: Episode 11
This lengthy podcast of over one hour concludes the commentary from Chris concerning the recent exchange between Sye TenBruggencate and Justin Schieber. There is no salvation available anywhere else than in Jesus Christ. Pray that Justin, and others listening to the foolishness of his worldview being exposed, would turn to Christ and live.…
