Nevertheless, here's a defense of Van Til's position at the Triablogue. Note that Van Til clearly talks about the Trinity as one divine person with three subsistences. The Clarkians call it heresy and the Van Tillians find a way to explain it. Who's right? You decide!
I'll look into it...but yes, Robbins likes burning straw men left and right. I take his critiques with a grain of salt...make that less than a grain.

I'm not a gigantic Van Til fan, btw...I can't hardly understand him most of the time.
