First blog post in a long time. I wanted to comment briefly on the debate between Dan Barker and James White entitled “Was Jesus a Myth?” and the quite unusual incident in which Barker, just 20 seconds into White’s opening statement, interrupted him and demanded he not quote from Barker’s own book that he was [...]

More on Hagee

It’s curious when a well known evangelist begins to preach something that the church hasn’t had an inclin of for it’s 2000 year existence. Interestingly, John Hagee is a dispensationalist preacher and is a prime example of concern that is expressed towards this movement since it is more politically based on the re-establishment of the [...]
Hagee: Jesus is not the Messiah

Just thought I’d drop this post in to see what others think of John Hagee’s slightly zealous support of Israel. In his new book he claims that Jesus never claimed to be the Messiah. I’m just wondering what Bible he is reading.

The following link is a tongue in cheek article from a guest writer at Answers in Genesis. While strong in rhetoric I think it makes some excellent satirical points about the position that an all encompassing evolutionary worldview leaves us with, most notably our ability to reason, appreciate and even think about thinking.
No single, essential [...]
Craig vs Atkins

While I’m in the mood for some debates I thought I would link to the debate between Dr William Lane Craig and Dr Peter Atkins. Dr Atkins is a scientist and well known atheist who is almost 100% certain that God doesn’t exist. I link to this debate because it’s one of the more comical. [...]
Craig vs Badawi

I’ve just watched an interesting debate between Dr Jamal Badawi and Dr William Lane Craig on the Christian and Islamic concept of God. I say it’s interesting because of the arguments presented by both sides. Here are a few thoughts.
Dr Craig presents the case for Jesus’ divinity with his usual clarity and calm demeanor. He [...]
Evolution and Morality

Here’s a very interesting article from WorldNetDaily reproduced by CMI. The interviewer is a Christian questioning an anthropologist about his book which shows the evolutionary benefits of rape. It’s a very interesting read.

I’m currently recharging the batteries in Orlando, Florida with my family and paid a visit to Discovery Cove today. Why am I blogging it? Because I had such a close encounter with nature my breath was taken away. I went snorkeling with my family and swam with hundreds of fish, coral, stingrays and a myriad [...]

Reason in the Balance: Philip E. Johnson
Philip E. Johnson masterfully hits the nail squarely on the head this deep but readable analysis of the assumptions which lie underneath scientific empiricism. I found him to be honest revealing early on his faith bias but still honest enough to investigate the issue as a true lawyer would. [...]
