Does Presup Apologetics Have a Biblical Foundation? Mike Winger vs Sye Ten Bruggencate 01:20:15 – 01:22:18

Audience question from 'apology of five'; key methodological clarification

Sye: using evidences in a presuppositional framework is fine. Paul Taylor of the Creation Museum is cited as a good example of evidence used presuppositionally. But the methodology of evidentialism (evidence to convince) and presuppositionalism (evidence to expose suppressed knowledge) are in conflict. You cannot combine them as methodologies; you can use evidence within the presup framework. He warns against 'giving up presuppositions' when presenting evidence.
