Ungodly thinkers are always forced to use fallacies since they can’t prove any premise true.

91 FACTS MOST PEOPLE DON’T KNOW ABOUT RATIONAL THOUGHT:
1. The whole world honors an insane way of thinking without absolute truth, and that’s why the world is so crazy.
2. Rational thought requires a starting point of truth. It must be based on truth. Truth is absolute by definition.
3. Without divine revelation, it’s impossible to have a true premise. Without a true premise, it’s impossible to be rational.
4. Without truth, no rational thought can exist.
5. No truth exists outside Christ.
6. The simplicity in Christ is this: Christ is real and Christ reveals truth to any open mind. He’s alive and knowable.
7. You can pray, “Lord, be the foundation of my every thought. Let me listen to Your voice every moment.”

31. Two basic fallacies exist: calling made-up stuff real and covering up the fact that we’re calling made-up stuff real.
32. Don’t fall into the axiomatic thinking fallacy trap. Axiomatic thinking is calling made-up stuff “true.”
33. The only alternative to the axiomatic thinking fallacy is divine revelation.
34. Assumptions consist of made-up stuff, and using them as the basis for reasoning is insane. And yet, academia runs on assumptions.
35. Presuppositions consist of made-up stuff and using them as the basis for reasoning is insane, and yet, academia runs on presuppositions.
36. Axioms consist of made-up stuff and using them as the basis for reasoning is insane, and yet, academia runs on axioms.
37. Since ungodly thinkers can never prove any premise, they get used to fallacy.
38. Ungodly thinkers mix assumptions with observations. Observation is different from an assumption.
39. Ungodly thinkers assume it makes sense to base reasoning on made-up stuff, to base thinking on assumptions or presuppositions. Made-up stuff is all they have.
40. Ungodly thinkers base their thoughts on made-up stuff because of the limitations of the human mind.
41. Ungodly thinkers use the argument from ignorance fallacy a lot, but it’s a sneaky way to give the illusion speculations are part of reality.
42. Ungodly thinkers face Agrippa’s Trilemma (the Münchausen Trilemma). Ungodly thinking can never come to an absolute conclusion. This means ungodly thinkers can never be certain of any claim.
43. Ungodly thinkers can’t be rational because of the Münchausen Trilemma. Only divine revelation from Jesus Christ solves this Trilemma.
44. Agrippa’s Trilemma (the Münchausen Trilemma) binds ungodly thinkers.
45. Ungodly thinkers try to defend reasoning based on made-up stuff and other fallacies.
46. Ungodly thinkers claim, based on bare assertion, that God doesn’t reveal truth to those who listen to Him.
47. Ungodly thinkers claim divine revelation is made-up stuff. How ironic! The ungodly thinker made up that claim. The ungodly thinker is claiming to know the inner spiritual experience of every Christian who ever lived.
48. God reveals Himself to ungodly thinkers. They refuse to listen to Him.
49. When ungodly thinkers refuse to listen to Christ, they’re turning toward darkness. They lose their ability to sense God. They can’t hear Him anymore. They can’t feel His presence. They can’t see the Kingdom of Heaven. They become increasingly callous.
50. Ungodly thinkers make up stories to assert that Christ doesn’t reveal reality to those who follow Him.
51. If you assume what you’re trying to prove, you prove nothing.
52. How could an ungodly thinker prove a premise? They would need a second premise to prove the first, but they can’t prove the second premise either. How can an ungodly thinker prove a premise? They can’t.
53. Ungodly thinkers are always forced to use fallacies since they can’t prove any premise true.
54. Rational thought requires true premises. That’s a problem for ungodly thinkers. It’s not a problem for those who know Christ. He is the truth and the only Source of knowledge and truth.
55. Rational thought must be based on truth, but ungodly thinkers have no path to truth. Ungodly thinkers can only escape this problem by turning to Christ. Pray for them.
56. Ungodly thinkers love to argue. Since they think their bare claims are valid, they have no limits.
57. Since ungodly thinkers can’t think rationally, they argue irrationally.

57. Since ungodly thinkers can’t think rationally, they argue irrationally.
58. Interpretation of observation requires adding something (truth or not truth) to the observation. Truth only comes by divine revelation from Christ.
59. Interpretation of Scripture requires adding something (truth or not truth) to the Scripture. Truth only comes by divine revelation from Christ.
60. Emotion never proves anything, but ungodly thinkers are convinced based on emotion.
61. The emotional appeal fallacy is effective in fooling weak minds.
62. The appeal to emotion fallacy uses emotion to add fantasy to observation and calls the combination of fantasy and observation “evidence.”
63. The appeal to emotion fallacy uses emotion to add fantasy to Scripture and calls the combination of fantasy and observation “Scripture.”
64. Dogmatic thinking bases thought on dogma rather than living in the revelation flowing from Jesus Christ, Who is the only Source of ALL knowledge and wisdom.
65. Ambiguity can deceive the unaware.
66. God reveals truth through science. Some scientists thank Him. Others turn away from Light and Righteousness.
67. Ungodly scientists use assumptions as if they were part of reality. That’s how they sell their ungodly religion.
68. In the make-believe world of the ungodly thinker, “evidence” consists of filtered observations interpreted by assumptions that can’t be proved true.
69. Ungodly thinkers are stuck with bare claims and many smokescreen fallacies.
70. To say a statement is true when it’s unknown is irrational. Yet, that’s how ungodly thinkers use assumptions in science, philosophy, and theology.
71. No one can prove axioms like Rationalism, Naturalism, Materialism, or Uniformitarianism. They’re made-up stories, and they’re false.
72. Naturalism ASSUMES no God. God REVEALS no naturalism.
73. Speculative science and speculative theology: both are dangerous.
74. Ungodly thinkers can’t give an example of one kind of living thing ( like a cat of dog) turning into another kind of living thing. To say "countless examples exist" is not an example.
75. Evolutionists tried to be rational, but that never worked because evolutionism is irrational.
76. Evolutionists are having success with appeal to ridicule fallacies since no one likes to be ridiculed.
77. Evolutionism is based in storytelling and denialism. Evolutionism is a religious dogma that can't be falsified. All conclusions of age-of-the-earth “science” depend on assumptions and storytelling.
78. Scientists and theologians generally reason emotionally and irrationally.
79. Scientists and theologians often reason based on made-up stuff such as axioms or assumptions. That’s irrational.
80. Scientists and theologians generally reason irrationally then rationalize their conclusions to make them seem sane.
81. Don’t be fooled by appeal the appeal to popularity fallacy. Satan established an organized system. The system consists of the culture, education, and media. The people in this system act in unison so the system acts as a single false prophet.
82. It’s no surprise ungodly schools teach an irrational form of logic.
83. Ungodly schools don’t teach the fact that without divine revelation, no path to a true premise exists.
84. Ad ignorantiam question fallacies work because most people don’t think rationally.
85. But sanctify [purify] the Lord God in your hearts [innermost being], and be ready always to give an answer [apologia = rational response] to every man who asks you a reason [logos = utterance = Christ] of the hope [firm vision from God] that is in you [in your innermost being] with meekness [a gentle spirit] and fear [reverence]. 1 Peter 3:15

I see you as the baby. As the teacher, I see You now.
I see You on the cross as You died there for my sin.
I see You as the Victor as You rose again.

I see You ascending. In Your throne, I see You now.
I see You in heaven at the right hand of Your Father.
I see You interceding until all is restored.

I see You in my brother. In my sister, I see You now.
I see You in each member, each stone in Your temple.
I see You in each ministry with Your love between each one.

I see You in Your Church. In Your Body, I see You now.
I see You in Your order, the order of the Scripture.
I see You in Your government, Your Kingdom in the earth.
