In this video we discuss the often-used tactic by certain protestants and muslims alike of invoking the alleged ‘philosophy’ whether Greek or otherwise, which has supposedly ‘corrupted’ the Church of Christ’s doctrines. I have encountered several muslims who use this kind of objection such as ‘you are just doing philosophy’ (in fact this is exactly what Mansur did in his debate with Josh which I can not seem to find on YouTube in its original form anymore).

In so doing, we will demonstrate how ‘philosophy’ is merely being used as a polemical dirty word to poison the well, and that such an approach is not only self-destructive and highly fallacious, but also an impossible argument to make in genuine intent for dialogue. It is rather, I propose, a scare tactic to avoid questions of ultimate truth and blots out the sincerity of our discourse with one another.
