Ramsey believed that Christians are in touché with God through the means of conjecturing. Conjectures are propositions that are not proven. But‚ in the side of the Christians they didn’t call this as conjecturing rather they call it Faith. If Paul Ramsey believed to what Nietzsche said‚ then both of them are applicable to what they truly believe. Simply because what they trying to prove are mere propositions that are not proven.

Augustine and the Problem of Evil Introduction When St. Augustine wrote Enchiridion‚ The City of God‚ and On the Free Choice of the Will he certainly had various reasons in mind and multiple arguments he was seeking to prove.
