Sye argues that non-presuppositional arguments are inherently probabilistic and thus do not represent how God speaks about himself in Scripture

Does Presup Apologetics Have a Biblical Foundation? Mike Winger vs Sye Ten Bruggencate 00:37:19 – 00:38:52

Broader methodological point extended to include the preponderance-of-evidence approach

Even when evidential apologists don't use the word 'probability,' their arguments about the 'preponderance of evidence' or 'tornado-through-a-junkyard' design arguments are probabilistic in structure. Scripture never speaks of God in terms of odds. Sye cites Winger's own sermons where he uses the language of 'we know' — not 'we think it's likely' — showing Winger himself speaks with certainty in a church context but uses probabilistic arguments externally.
