Summary: Chauncy Riddle provides discussion of three apostate arguments: First, naturalistic empiricism, or reliance on experiences of the senses to ascertain truth. While a case can be made for the value of our senses, they are not sufficient to grapple with such principles as justice or mercy, or answer questions about God. Second, Humanism, or the belief that achievement comes through purely human devices. The values associated with such and approach are self-serving, indulgent, and independent of relying on God's grace. Third, Relativism, or the tendency to believe that regulations inhibit the freedom that leads to happiness. The individual thereby becomes his own judge concerning what is proper. Riddle recommends three ideals to follow to avoid deceptions such as those used by Korihor.
