Mesmo se houvesse uma verdade comum no secularismo e no Cristianismo, os argumentos baseados nela não produziriam fé. Aquilo que os evangélicos empiristas pensam ser o mais necessário é o mais inútil.

Não se deve impensadamente supor que a lógica exija uma negação dos milagres.

A pertinência das objeções científicas ao sobrenatural — se há alguma — depende inteiramente da natureza da ciência e de suas limitações.

The chief law of logic is the law of contradiction, and it is this law that maintains the distinction between truth and falsity. If this distinction cannot be maintained, then (as the ancient Sophists showed) all opinions are true and all opinions are false.

“We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”

Sin thus interferes with our thinking. It does not, however, prevent us from thinking. Sin does not eradicate or annihilate the image. It causes a malfunction, but man still remains man.

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”

The school system that ignores God teaches its pupils to ignore God; and this is not neutrality. It is the worst form of antagonism, for it judges God to be unimportant and irrelevant in human affairs.

— Gordon H. Clark, A Christian Philosophy of Education (Jefferson, MD [1946], 1988), p. 73.

“Thus it is seen that the falsity of science derives directly from its ideal of accuracy.”

Since he [the scientist] chooses his law from among an infinite number of equally possible laws, the probability that he has chosen the “true” law is one over infinity, i.e. zero.

The scientist wants mathematical accuracy; and when he cannot discover it, he makes it... No one doubts that scientific laws are useful...The point of all this argument is that scientific laws are not discovered but are chosen.

— Gordon Clark, “Science and Truth,” May/June 1981, The Trinity Review.

The particular law that the scientist announces to the world is not a discovery forced on him by so-called facts; it is rather a choice from among an infinity of laws all of which enjoy the same experimental basis.

“It is strange that anyone who thinks he is a Christian should deprecate logic.”

Irrationality contradicts the Biblical teaching from beginning to end. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is not insane. God is a rational being, the architecture of whose mind is logic.

The law of contradiction is not to betaken as an axiom prior to or independent of God. The law is God thinking.

Whether the proposition be physical, psychological, moral, or theological, it is God who made it that way. A proposition is true because God thinks it so.

Such verses as these* indicate that God is a rational, thinking being whose thought exhibits the structure of Aristotelian logic.

Empiricism is self-refuting. The claim that “knowledge comes only from sensory experience” cannot itself come from sensory experience. On its own merits empiricism should be rejected.

No two of us can ever have the same thought because every thought is a purely personal experience. This makes communication impossible. In technical language, empiricism results in Solipsism.
