Presuppositionalists make the argument that all forms of knowledge begin with assumptions. Of course, with regards to apologetics, they are allowing everyone else a tool, say, reason, or sense experience, but demanding all of theology as their own tool. That is a false analogy.
It is also begging the question, as it presupposes the truth of christian theism in order to prove christian theism. You're the logic monkey, you should already be aware of this.
I actually made a thread about this specifically, if you want to take it there. We've drifted off topic, besides, I want to keep this thread seperate for posting syllogisms in mathematical formats, and demanding that you provide me with a single scientific discovery achieved through divine revelation.
