Bahnsen's Basic Training for Defending the Faith, Part I: The Myth of Neutrality

Neutrality is a term use to people who  is not choosing any sides of 2 certain opposing subjects. This are use by individuals which is open to both opinions with an agreeable statement.

The “Bahnsen's Basic Training for Defending the Faith, Part I: The Myth of Neutrality” first talks about Christians, they stated that Christians is an influenced faith while non- Christians are neutral. This is clearly stating that Christianity is being unfair to other religions considering other religions to be bad or unrightous.

The myth of neutrality has a 1^st notion by Dr. Bahnsen. There are 2 basic statements First, they are not neutral. Secondly, we should not even try to be neutral. There are humanist, professors and students who set aside notions which dr. Bahnsen stated that humanist are not open-minded, Christ is the source of truth and righteousness, God wants us to be consecrated, Neutrality will rob us of our ability to gain knowledge and wisdom, We should recognize that people opposed to Christian truth, We are not forbidden from studying philosophy, The world looks down on the Gospel and God's system of truth and We should reject so-called "wisdom" and "knowledge" that runs contrary to God's Truth.

For my opinion, I think that neutrality is something that will be helpful to any kind of subjects that are opposing in order to avoid arguments.

Although some worldview had some conflict with subjects which can be very disarranged in their proper process. We must understand the concept of antithesis as we confront hostile and rival claims against our faith. Although unbelievers and believers are often not in agreement, our thoughts should lead us in completely different directions.
