I did get at least one "Well, if that's the case, why don't we all become creation scientists" responses. I just stared blankly (thinking to myself "duh!").

I graduated from a Reformed seminary where the evidentialist view was the approach that was taught and it was assumed you held this approach. I was never comfortable with it and held to the presuppositional position before I came to seminary. I was thankful for my systematic theology professor who turned me on to Gordon Clark.  |
I considered myself presuppositional before coming to Biola. After being to a couple of debates between atheists and evidential apologists, I have become solidified in my belief that the evidentialist apologetic is unable to shut the mouth of the unbeliever to the same degree as the presuppositional apologetic. Evidence has it's place, don't get me wrong, but I've decided that I will not attend any more debates unless a presuppositional apologist is included.
I have been surprised by the extent to which presuppositionalism has spread among the general evangelical population (using the Biola grad students I've encountered as a sample population).
