No right or wrong?
This short letter comes from Brandon Pearce, Lansdowne PA, USA, who gave permission for his full name to be used. We have previously shown the fallacies of such post-modernist thinking, but it’s still surprisingly common, even (perhaps especially) in academic circles. A good technique for defending the faith is one practised often by Jesus: showing that the opposing view refutes itself. So the letter is first printed, then reprinted with brief responses by Dr Jonathan Sarfati.
I know this sounds bad and everything, but perhaps, just perhaps both are wrong, or both are right. I believe in teaching people to be open minded and not say that either one is right or wrong. Thats what we should be teaching, to make their own educated guesses as to our existance. No one will ever know the truth until we go past the grave.
Just a thought.

You mean, teaching people that it’s right that they should be open-minded and that no-one is right or wrong? And that we are wrong for repeating what Jesus said — that He is ‘the truth’ (John 14:6)?
… to make their own educated guesses as to our existance. No one will ever know the truth until we go past the grave.
So, do you know this for sure?
Just a thought.
So was my reply, and I hope you see the self-refuting nature of your claims.
