| Question-Begging Rejection of Faith |
Logical Fallacy of Question-Begging Rejection of FaithWhenever a logical fallacy is committed, the fallacy has its roots in Agrippa's trilemma which is simply the fact that the foundation of all human thought (without Divine revelation) is based on one of three unhappy possibilities. These three possibilities are infinite regression, circular reasoning, or bare assertions without any evidence. Question-begging rejection of faith, a form of circular reasoning, is one of these three unhappy possibilities. The Logical Fallacy of Question-Begging Rejection of Faith occurs when faith is rejected based on a presupposition. Examples of the Logical Fallacy of Question-Begging Rejection of FaithAtheism, Naturalism, Materialism, or Scientism when they are taken as presuppositions without verifiable, deductive proof are philosophies based on the question-begging rejection of faith.
