Van Tillian/Clarkian Presuppositional Apologetics.

[Ace Otana]

So I guess that’s the story in a nutshell.

So you had a pretty religious back ground. A rather religious environment. I wonder if that played a part.
My up brining is quite different. My early school tried to convert me into Christianity long before I could read or write. Years later when I became aware of their attempts, I was quite annoyed. Once I reached 8, religious teaching dropped dramaticly, I guess they could no longer take advantage of my age and gullibility. Religion disappeared completely once I started high school. For years religion never came to mind. I didn't know what atheism was till I was around 17. Looked it up and then I knew what I was. Joined a few atheist forums and that's where I really started to learn things. Both religion and science. At first I was useless at debating any theist, but as knowledge grew as well as experience in debating, I became alot better at it. It was by looking into religion that I encountered many fallacies. So it became almost too easy to argue against. But yeah, my back ground was mostly secular, but never was I pushed into atheism since I didn't know what an atheist was. Religion was the only one trying to push me into anything. Back fired though.
