TILL 12/4
At last, I will confess something that few people know. I am a devout
Muslim, and I believe the Qur'an is infallible. You might argue that
choosing to believe the Qur'an is fallible does not make it so. In one
sense, you are correct; it is obviously a circular argument. Yet, when I
see how Allah blesses me in my life when I try to follow him, and His Holy
Word, then I have no doubts of the authenticy of either.
What proves too much proves nothing at all. It's too bad Matthew wasn't on
the list when this axiom was discussed. I have tried to get him to post
what he considers a CID in a nonbiblical document, but he has refused to do
it, because he no doubt understands that I can make good my promise to use
inerrantist methods to prove that his CID isn't really a CID. Now I will
make another challenge to him. I will challenge him to prove that any
belief of any kind is a false belief. If he will attempt to do that, I will
show him that merely by using his methods of confirming the "authenticity"
of his god and Bible, anyone can prove the truth of anything.
