Here’s another way ungodly thinkers use the ad ignorantiam fallacy as a smokescreen. With Christ, we don’t need fallacies. Without Christ, people make up stuff and use smokescreen fallacies to deceive you.

(quote from RealReality.org/Real_Faith_and_Reason_Vol_2_-_Scientia.pdf)

“Here’s an apparent conflict. Explain it.”

The persuader claims a conflict exists and your inability to prove no conflict exists either proves some point or disproves the point. Someone may claim a conflict exists in the Bible or a story told by scientists. Someone may claim there’s a conflict between something about God and what we can see. Claims of the conflicts in the Bible always depend on at least one assumption or other made-up stuff. Theologians, scientists, and experts often have real conflicts in their thinking, but that doesn’t prove them wrong. You can’t know the truth without God. God can reveal truth. What God reveals is true. God shows us partial revelation, which means you won’t be able to answer every question.
