How Straw Man Arguments Keep Us Apart: Pursuing Intellectual Humility

Published on: 9th July, 2024

Starting off season 2 all about Logical Fallacies, we discuss what a Straw Man Argument is and how to avoid it. Joshua Noel discusses how logic is important to our faith and how God is not a god of confusion! He also discusses how important avoiding straw man arguments can be for church unity, and how to steel man the other side better for missiology as well!

.

What is an example of a straw man argument? Why is the straw man fallacy bad? What is the difference between the strawman and steelman argument? What is the straw man strategy? What is the opposite of a straw man argument? What does the Westminster Confession say? What is the controversy with the Westminster Confession of Faith? What does the Westminster Confession of Faith say about the Pope? What does Unity in Church mean?

In this episode, you will be able to:

  • Explore your faith through the lens of logic
  • Deconstruct bad faith arguments
  • Engage others better in and out of the Church
  • Strengthen your own arguments for your faith

About the Podcast

Be Living Water
Benefitting all, in conflict with none, and in harmony with Christ
This show seeks to explore spirituality from the lens of a Christian Taoist, Joshua Noel. We hope to explore Christian, Hebrew, and Taoist Scriptures to find peace for ourselves, love for our neighbors, and a message of Salvation for our time. The only way to the Father is through Jesus Christ, but what does the way of Jesus look like in our times? Just as Lao Tzu describes "the way" as one where we find our truest selves, have harmony with creation, and seek to put others before ourselves - so too is the way we follow Christ. Some episodes may be devotionals, some will be theological explorations, and other episodes may just be ponderings of our time - but it will all be in an effort to benefit all and be in conflict with none, through Christ.
