style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">If a deductive argument was
presented, and I thought the deductive argument was clearly validin priori
fashionand I believed the premises were as true as anything could possibly be
true, then I would suspect that I would say the argument worked; Id say that
the argument demonstrates a contradiction in this case. As for whether
or not I would conclude that the Eternal God could not exist, that would be
another matter, a point I noted about the nature of my total body of
evidence. Of course, we havent even gotten to the issue of the
rationality of basic beliefs and epistemic
defeaters.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
