logical laws


Today we do a full analysis of the greatest debate of the 2oth century – the Bahnsen/Stein Debate. Hopefully we will cover the many misunderstandings that arise from various sectors concerning the transcendental argument, the nature of proofs and evidences, the compatibility of philosophy with Orthodoxy, and especially this form of argumentation, the word-concept fallacy, calvinism and much more. Part 2 of the other talk will be up later tomorrow or the day after.
 

Debate Here 

 
Ethan invited me back to Ralph Retort to debate Apollonian pagan Mark Brahmin on the nature of the biblical texts, and in particular the law, the prophets and the wisdom texts.  It’s a heated debate that focuses on the validity of the Bible, the possibility of miracles, logical laws and fallacies, justifying claims and much more!  We had a funny, raucous live audience of 2k – Enjoy.

UPDATE:

Note for the debate: YouTube changed the ingestion settings live stream page since we tested it two days ago. Matt was cool about it and we are rescheduling for week of 19th. No one was running, YT has redone steaming page. You can’t schedule a live event and have it stream the way it used to since hangouts is gone, you have to use “live stream now.” My mistake



Covering the ecumenical councils and the epistemic issue of how we have doctrinal certainty. I will touch on the importance of Pentecost and the teaching office of the Spirit and the means the Spirit had ordained. We will cover the approach of the councils from the councils themselves, beginning in Acts 15 up through the ecumenical ones, depending on how far we get. I will also reply to the laughable pseudo-argument about my using the term “infused substance” instead of infused accident, as if it altered the argument (which it doesn’t).
