Food for Thought: "A Calvin University" by C. Van Til

Greetings.

For those interested in CorneliusVan Til's writings, I'm going to be making some observations on his 1939 article "A Calvin University".

The question arises:

"If we had a Calvin University would we wish the faculty of that institution to engage in their research and teaching in accordance with current scientific methodology?"


Hint:

"In my humble judgement the current scientific method is based upon the assumption of the truth of a non- Christian conception of reality and can in consequence never conclude that Christianity is true unless it is prepared to deny its own principles." (emphisis mine).

Strong words. Let's see if Dr. Van Til can back them up.
