Logical Fallacies “Prepare your minds for action” 1 Peter 1:13 [NASB Update] www.christian-apologetics.org/mcas/ | manawatu@christian-apologetics.org
Moral Relativism and Logical Fallacies • No one can consistently deny the law of non-contradiction • Everyone promotes a particular point of view. The issue is ‘which one is correct’? • All scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. 2 Tim 3:16 [ESV] www.christian-apologetics.org/mcas/ | manawatu@christian-apologetics.org
The Law of Non-ContradictionA Kiwi example • "Fundamentalists, be they Muslim fundamentalists or Christian or Jewish fundamentalists or left-wing extremists or right-wing extremists, they've all got something in common and that's their intolerance of those who disagree with them." www.christian-apologetics.org/mcas/ | manawatu@christian-apologetics.org
Critique • The statement claims that biblical claims are ‘intolerant’ yet clearly is intolerant of Christianity! • Christians are labelled ‘fundamentalists’ yet the statement makes ‘fundamentalist’ assertions. www.christian-apologetics.org/mcas/ | manawatu@christian-apologetics.org
Critique • A false comparison is made between Christianity, Judaism and Islam. No account is taken of the important differences – the authority and completeness of the scriptures, the Trinity, the deity of Christ, redemption, assurance of salvation, etc. www.christian-apologetics.org/mcas/ | manawatu@christian-apologetics.org
