Rest assured, my searing indictment against Christianity in general, and presuppositionalism in particular, shall continue. I have a lot planned for the third year run of Incinerating Presuppositionalism. Over the course of the next few weeks and months, I will be posting blogs on Bahnsen and “the ‘Super-Natural’,” Van Til’s “One-Many Argument” and presuppositional method, Anthony Flood’s attempts to discredit George H. Smith’s Atheism: The Case Against God, as well as presuppositional neglect: Christianity's lack of a theory of concepts which prompts the mystification of mental operations, a chronic philosophic malady lying at the heart of presuppositionalism.

And lots of other fun stuff!

So get ready for another year of blazing fun!

And if any of my readers are interested in matters that I have not addressed or feel I have overlooked something, suggestions and requests can be submitted to sortion@hotmail.com. I promise at least to look at them.
