Skeptic argument about the apostles motive

Hey guys. When presenting the case for the resurrection to skeptics I typically see something like this pointed out. These are the common three possible scenarios regarding the apostles willingness to die for the claim that Christ rose from the dead. 1. They died for a lie and knew it (unsustainable...

Re: What are the Strongest points of Theistic Evolution

Hey there guys, I was wanting to try and participate in on the discussion. I was wanting to ask you Serapah what your top reasons for believing darwinian evolution are. I've always have wanted to ask people who hold to evolution what their main reasons are, but since so many of them are the hateful ...

Re: Very worried about gas prices...

Yes indeed, it's very true that we should place our hope in God. But at times like these, I find it way more difficult to trust God. I've been studying apologetics for sometime and for the most part, I have most of my intellectual doubts taken care of. The only problem is, I have a lot of emotional ...

Re: Very worried about gas prices...

By, by any chance do you know of any good alternative fuels that show real promise or all they all lies and gimmicks just to make people feel clam and to not panic? The ones that look good to me currently (apart from drilling here that is if there is really any more oil here) are natural gas, electr...

Re: Very worried about gas prices...

In other words, me and my family are going to starve soon, (since unlike other people) we don't make six figures a year and have relational ties to opec, the government and so forth.

Very worried about gas prices...

I noticed that Diesel is right at $4.00 and regular is in the $3.80 range where I'm at. What's going to happen if people can't afford to drive back and forth to work and to get food? Also with food prices going up (and are expected to keep going up) what will be done (whether it be by the government...

Ateist volitional will and what Christians can do...

I saw something very interesting on one of the religious broadcasting networks not too long ago, it was something mentioned by Dr. Charles Stanley who pastors a church in Atlanta Ga. He was answering a question that someone asked him regarding what to do, or more specifically what to pray about when...

God's judgement with people who have mental illnesses

Greetings everyone, this has to do with the salvation (or possible non salvation) status of my friend's mother. She grew up in a Christian home and throughout most of her childhood and early adulthood believed in the Christian faith. But recently she went through a bad divorce and went through some ...

Re: Apologetics list project

List case for Christian Theism Cosmological argument: The big bang indicates that the universe had a beginning, it had a cause and lack of evidence from naturalists indicate it to be a personal cause outside of time and space. Also the question, "why is there something rather than nothing?"...

Case for atheistic naturalism (if I were an atheist this would be my case) Origin of the universe: Either a universe coming from nothing by nothing (like what Stephen Hawking describes) or a eternal universe much like what Roger Penrose describes.

Apologetics list project

Hi all, I'm currently working on a apologetics chart or list of arguments for Christian Theism. Also since I'm someone who isn't afraid of arguments and evidences from atheists, I've done a chart for naturalism as well. Now I don't necessarily want you all to discuss the specific arguments and evide...

Re: World becoming increasingly atheist

A recent Facebook poll was done on asking people whether or not they believe that God exists, so far 671,398 people say yes, 52,342 say no, and 43,575 say "time will tell" (or don't know). So for what it's worth, the majority are still theists.
