I Highly Recommend the book, "The Ancient Moon Goddess: Crushed by Patriarchy Buried by Judaism Hidden in Christianity". Dr. Jonathan Young, founding curator of "Joseph Campbell and Marija Gimbutas Archives says of their book, that "it deepens our understanding of key teachings from the Bible, radically shifting the meanings of familiar spiritual narratives." He calls it "a major advance in perspective, taking us beyond the contributions of Joseph Campbell, Marija Gimbutas, and Riane Eisler." facebook.com/share/p/1Edo3L…

@DrMikeLicona When do you want to discuss it with me?

@DrMikeLicona I earned master's degrees in this disciple and wrote a chapter on the state of it in a chapter that Gary Habermas recommends. Find it in my book "The Case against Miracles." Would you like to discuss it with me? amzn.to/3QvNefI

Mastering Christian apologetics requires rigor and strategic training. The value of consuming diverse literature and observing debates lies in exposure to arguments that have already withstood significant critical scrutiny, arguments refined precisely because seasoned scholars cannot afford to merely "preach to the choir." Furthermore, engaging in roleplay is crucial for translating theoretical knowledge into compelling, conversational competence. This process ensures you develop not only sound logic but also the finesse necessary to articulate a robust defense of Christianity effectively. How do you currently test and refine your apologetic arguments? Watch the full conversation here: youtu.be/2FfU9fCwVxY #ChristianApologetics #DefendYourFaith #FaithJourney

And you don't understand the implications of an omniscient, all powerful and perfectly loving God. debunking-christianity.com/2026/03/my-deb…

Just consider what good parents do. They raise their children to be good people, sometimes despite bad circumstances. Bad parents don't. Why is it a heavenly father couldn't do that with us, especially since he allegedly had the means to do so? God failed as a parent! Discuss.

@RFupdates If you would just pay attention you would see you're not actually solving the problem: debunking-christianity.com/2026/03/my-deb…

Does the existence of evil and suffering make God highly unlikely? Check out this Reasonable Faith original video on the probability version of the problem of evil!

Faith as a method for gaining knowledge about God, or anything else, is faulty. Agreed?

Here's an interesting interview I had with Godless Granny. There's a lot here! Enjoy. youtube.com/live/inhhLy8re…

Dr. Don McIntosh recently wrote a comprehensive article defending miracles, and mentioned me specifically. So I will respond. Here is his article: infidels.org/library/modern… My response will be posted at the end of May.

@Sean_McDowell Let's say I agree, but that the event to be tested is the alleged Mother of God giving birth to God's Son. Just ask what YOU would require if your virgin daughter claimed she gave birth to a baby deity? You would need objective evidence. Why not? share.google/LaQq8067Mh4rm0…

Only one religion is based on a single, testable, historical event. If you haven’t at least considered the evidence for the resurrection, NOW is the time.

@Sean_McDowell Faith as a method for gaining knowledge about God, or anything else, is faulty. Agreed?

Faith is not blind. Faith is not wishful thinking. Faith is not a leap in the dark. It involves trust, but not blind trust. Rather, faith is trusting God in LIGHT of the evidence. Faith is a personal act of trust and action based on evidence.

This is also excellent!

This is excellent!

Here's a toast and tribute to Dr. David Madison in honor of his 500th posting at Debunking Christianity. Our site wouldn't be what it is without him. We love what he writes and says, and you should too. What are some favorite posts from him? #disqus_thread" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">debunking-christianity.com/2026/04/a-toas… [pic from the 2016 Reason Rally]

Dr. Craig and Dr. David Baggett have co-authored a book that will be released in May! In “Reasonable Moral Faith: A History, Primer, and Argument,” Baggett and Craig trace the rich history of moral arguments before constructing their own inductive moral argument for God’s existence.
