There's the argument that the veracity of the Bible and the truth it contained are the only presuppositions that makes sense, but even that is a bit subjective since one would have to demonstrate that every other presupposition possible is known.<br /><br />But to use the Christian veridical argument is effective in evangelism because it resonates in those who have the Holy Spirit and not in those who don't.<br /><br />Interestingly, I've used the veridical argument before with interesting results. I got into a discussion with one Muslim street apologist whose Muslim disciple came up and began to berate me in the middle of our discussion (which was one of their techniques). He actually stopped his disciple and told him to be quiet, that I was one who must be respected. And although he continued in unbelief, he finally and solemnly stated that I had some means of insight that he did not have, therefore I must have the Holy Spirit. He said he did not have the Holy Spirit and could only use his own mind.Jim Pembertonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01446388434272680014noreply@blogger.com
