Well Rhythm's and my conversation about the principle of induction in the incredulous logic thread is a pretty good example. I demonstrated that scripture can justify the principle of induction and he has yet to provide a justification for it that is not logically fallacious. If you wish to give it a try you are more than welcome to.

You originally claimed this -

Quote:I demonstrated that not only can Christianity account for the preconditions of intelligibility, but it is the only proposed worldview that can do this.

Now you're claiming that "scripture can justify the principle of induction". Not the same thing.

I have been following that thread. I remain as unconvinced as Rhythm. As far as I can tell, you've demonstrated nothing outside of your own mind - certainly not to me. Any logical argument that considers scriptural accuracy as axiomatic isn't going to carry any weight with me. Sorry.

You also make the mistake of thinking that Rhythm (or anyone else) needs to provide a model of their own to debunk yours. They don't.

Lest you think otherwise, I'm not interested in continuing this discussion. I only wanted to know what your "demonstration" consisted of. Now that you've confirmed it, I can see that continuing this discussion would be an enormous waste of my time.
