To take for granted the preconditions of intelligibility is only consistent with the Bible.

You have explained the the biblical world view make the preconditions able to be taken for granted, but you merely shifted the burden to taking God for granted, and evolution still provides another explaniation as to WHY we take the preconditions for granted regardless of if we should or not. Con:"It [the reason i don't have a reason to believe in the preconditions] is because my opponent does not have the Word of God as his ultimate standard, rather he has the preconditions as his ultimate standard. A precondition simply means that a condition must exist before something can occur or be considered." I have explained why it is i believe them through evolution, whether or not i can logically justify them does not alter the possibility that natural selection put the pre-conditions in my head. Also, aren't you just shifting the problem to God. By your logic Greek mythology is the way to go. Let me explain a simplified version of the myth. starting in the middle, with the creation of humans (i'll go to earth later) The God Prometheus made humans in the image of Gods, while Eupimetheus created the animals. Eupimetheus gave each animal a gift, when Prometheus asked for a gift for the humans he had none. Prometheus decided to give us fire, which was reservered for the Gods. Prometheus was punished for eternity. Zeus also punished mankind by giving a woman, Pandora, a box with the order not to open it. Pandora opened it releasing all the evils of the world. This explains why we can take the preconditions for granted, we were created in Gods' image. Their is also no problem of evil because the Gods are not omnibenevolent. However like your myth we still have the problem of taking the gods for granted, this is answered by the titans. I won't go through the entire myth but Kronos and Rhea had children whom were the gods. Why do we take Kronos and Rhea for granted, because they came from Uranus and Gai. Uranus and Gai hatched from an egg layed by Nyx. Uranus became the sky and Gai became the earth. The earth being a Gai would explain why plates move, volcanoes erupt etc. Similarly the sky being Uranus explains why clouds move, rain etc. Back to the myth. By this point it has already explained more than yours, but it wouldn't be complete without explaining Nyx, who came from nothingness. Clearly this is true because without a god-like being nothingness would be all there was, so before Nyx there was nothing. By my oppenents logic greek myths are the superior ultimate standard. returning to the debate con:" if you believe something without reason, it is an irrational belief. This is exactly what my opponent and those would don't have a biblical world view are doing" it may be irrational, but with the evolutionary world view it is explainable, these irrational belliefs are hard coded into are mind. In explantion of evolution. Cons response to my arguement "We are a social species, this means that we evolved to work together." shows a lack of understanding on his part. He says that coraporation does not evolve into species. While this is true for some species, it is not true for social species. The pre-humans that lived together had higher chances of surviving and reproducing. So natural selection made us live together. Among those groups, the ones that did not fight each other did better, so natural selection picked the groups that did not fight with themselves, in other word the groups that worked together. Cons explanation of biblical morality that God makes absolute morality. This ignores the fact that many followers of the bible have different moral views, for example, slavery. Con:"To say society creates the moral code isn't solving the problem either," Yes it does, it opens the door to social evolution where the moral code is continually improved to create a better society, how do you explain the moral code changing over time. Con:" Since our brains create chemical reactions out of time and chance then the chemical reactions would be random" research evolution, it took billions of years for natural selection to created our brains, they are the best of random permutation of the previous best of random permutations of the previous best...ECT con:"if evolution were true it wouldn't be in your interest to get along" The ones who got along had more babies. Con:"If the evolutionary world view were true then we wouldn't care about whether we die or not." one of the most important thing evolution created is the survival instinct. if we die how do we reproduce? Con:"Although my opponent agrees that the laws of logic, morality, unity of nature, the senses and our memory are reliable sources in gaining knowledge," I thought we agreed that memory and the senses were not reliable sources. Con:"they the preconditions wouldn't exist if evolution were true." I already explained this, but unlike the biblical world view, evolution explains why we take memory and the senses for granted, even though they should not be. Your last paragraph is just a series of assertions without justification.
