Without absolute truth no one can discern a lie.
Knowing something requires discerning truth from lies.
Atheists can't know anything.
Discuss.
Sentence one isn't necessarily true. Sentence two isn't true at all. Sentence three also isn't true, because you can seize upon a single true thing while being surrounded by lies that you haven't recognized as such. Sentence four therefore doesn't follow.
My discussion? You need to stop listening to presuppositionalists, because this is just pathetic.
Oh, and also? If your corollary assertion is, as it seems to be, that christians can know things, then if you follow your premises you must be claiming to have some form of absolute truth. How do you intend to demonstrate that this is so?
