Re: [asa] C.S. Lewis on ID

Hopefully none. Your evidence should come from the 'reason, and
experience' ends of the said quadrilateral. (Reading a meter, or making
measurements would be experiences.) That is MN. But if you were
looking into social or religious questions (e.g. on ethics or prayer),
then simply reading a meter or watching regions of a brain light up on a
computer monitor would be woefully inadequate to address these
questions, and you would have to draw on other parts of the
quadrilateral to be considering ALL the evidence. I hope it isn't to
presumptuous of me to imagine the Wesleyan Quadrilateral as a square
pyramid where God is the foundation, and each of the four corners are
aspects of life that can point to an apex of Truth. (though I'm not
trying to make tradition equal to Scripture --the analogy may be flawed
in some ways.)
