Quote of the Week I

"The Roman Catholic apologists have worked out elaborate arguments to prove that theology and philosophy cover clearly differentiated domains of reality and follow clearly differentiated methods of investigation. Philosophy is said to deal with the domain of the natural reason, and Christianity is said to deal with the domain of faith. Theology, says Jacques Maritain, presupposes certain 'fundamental truths of the natural order as an introduction to the faith.' On the other hand, 'The premises of philosophy are self-supported and are not derived from those of theology'" (Van Til, Cornelius. "Christian Apologetics". P&R Publishing. Phillipsburg: 2003.)
