Maybe, but I'm not sure skepticism really would qualify as a presupposition. In any event, I think only Chatpilot is qualified to tell me what his presuppositions are.

I think I already answered this by pointing to Romans 9:19-24.

I read it. So...something that appears to be a flying mechanical machine falls to earth. How do we determine whether or not it is designed or just existed in nature? Since we have not seen something like it how does one make the determination? Likewise for those scientists who are looking for signals from aliens, how can they really distinguish between the signals of nature and ones from intelligent life? Obviously they think they can without having actually received any such signals. How would they convince you?

Do you always answer for everyone here? Why do you not let Craveman answer for himself?
