John Robbins and Gordon Clark

Here are a couple things that—to my advantage—I have that Dr. Gordon Clark doesn't: good looks, good humor, and finally, good logic. I recently read an article published by Trinity Foundation's writer, John Robbins. Now I've read some pretty disturbing things in my life, but Mr. Robbins was the tip of the ice berg. It seems that the bitter dispute between Van Til and Dr. Clark was inherited unduly to Mr. Robbins. It also seems to me that Mr. Robbins also seems to adopt the same logic: a charismatic and hynagogic faith that leads to irrationalism. These diminutions of irrationalism only induce what no less than harsh criticisms, my criticism. What then do I have in common with the philosopher? Almost nothing. If there is anything that we do share, it is his alleged accession to the Reformed creeds.
