Sure I believe it is a sound argument because I believe scripture is inerrant and scripture says that God exists, so both premises are true. You would disagree with the first premise; however this is a premise that can neither be proven or disproven so that is why I don't use the argument. It just doesn’t get us anywhere. Sure presuppositions can be used in sound arguments, they have to be. One must presuppose logic in order to even use logic.
