apologetics

Hi everyone! First time posting here. I'm not sure what to start with about myself, so I guess I'll talk briefly about my story, as someone who was not raised in the church. I first called on the the name of Christ in 2015 (at the age of 26) after a lifetime of being relatively indifferent to...

שלום, Ειρήνη, Pax! Dear brethren & sistren, One of my longtime heroes, Dave Armstrong, a Catholic apologist & evangelist of many years & voluminous work, has recently published a new book: The Word Set in Stone: How Archaeology, Science and History Back Up the Bible. I've yet to read it...

I’m a third year college student and about six months ago I met this wonderful Christian girl who loves the Lord and loves people. She’s gone through some of the toughest health problems and some of the toughest family problems I’ve ever seen someone go through and she’s come out on top through...

I have seen many people online saying that creation/ID are "pseudoscience". How do you refute it? I looked it up on searchcreation.org but i did not get results that matched my question. Maybe i could ask gotquestions.org about it? Any responses(from a christian prespective) would be welcome.

Greetings, My name is Caleb Collins, and I am but one of a group of college students who are in a band called PriorityOne. It is our goal to lead God-honoring worship and to serve Him well in that regard, but we also have a podcast, aptly named the PriorityOne Podcast. We'd love for you to give...

The genetic code is a literal digital and arbitrary code. The only observed cause capable of producing this is intelligence. We only know of intelligence producing what our very bodies contain. Anyone arguing against design being the best conclusion and reasonable inference is doing it merely...

Hi, I'm Dave Maynard. I earned a Michigan provisional teaching certificate and a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in physics and minors in astronomy, chemistry & mathematics. I have done graduate work in astro-physics, worked as a physics graduate teaching assistant and taught college...

Does anyone have firsthand experience with Credo Courses products or familiarity with the owner? I stumbled onto the website and it looks interesting. Thanks! Yours in His Service, ~bella

For those of you who may not have heard, Ravi Zacharias was a well-known Christian Evangelical apologist who passed away several months ago. Over the years I've heard Ravi on the radio maybe a dozen times, defending the Christian faith and firmly refuting non-believers. And while he wasn't my...

Apologetics In Meme Form… I just came across this site, with some rather well-designed visuals to explain the Catholic faith. Some have tongue-in-cheek humor, and others are straight-out explanations of Catholic theology, or quotes various people, even some that wouldn't be expected to be...

Right. Paul gave the imperative, "...do not become slaves of men." Now, why would he say this, and why might it be something important to consider as a point of contention against the idea that Jesus and the Apostles somehow "advocated" slavery as some skeptics now say they did? How might we...

... alright. Enough of the horse-hockey that so many non-Christians who come here keep proffering about slavery and the Bible. Instead, I propose we watch an episode of an atheist podcast for an additional angle on the "biblical" slavery issue. The following video is a recent episode of...

I know this is a clickbait type of question--bear with me for a second. I am interested in what you think about the role of apologetics when discussing the faith with non-believers on this forum. Recently I have engaged several believing members of this forum, across multiple treads, and I...

Yes, I personally think Blaise Pascal was a man not only of his time, but of ours as well, and a man of other times, for obvious reasons. He is a man of our present moment, even if not specifically of the year 2020; yet, he is also timeless in that he is existentially timely. And I say this...

For some reason or other, it seems the Ad Hominem "complaint" is dragged out quite often and applied to Christians who make character judgements about their interlocutors during debate. Because the identification of an ad hominem seems to have become a hobby for various atheists, I thought it'd...

Why a strange philosophical specialty known as "Epistemology," matters to everyone trying to discover what is true about their world. Epistemology is the study of human understanding. That is it answers the question, "What can we call knowledge?" There are several differing views of the limits...

When discussing issues about what is real in the world, especially issues that are controversial, such as the claim God (does/does not) exist, one should take one's time and assess the reasons for and against their view carefully and giving every effort to understand and represent the opposing...

I don't know, and neither do you! But we can always look at various remains of evidence that might persuade us to opt for one of a handful of different positions, positions that might in turn influence the structure of the processes at work in how any one of us understands the nature of the...

I am having the probably one of the biggest faith shakers of the my walk with the Lord yet with this verse. I've read so many articles about the different views of this discourse but I am not convince by any of them. To Preterists, Jesus return was in 70 A.D. and that the Abomination of...

From Oxford University Press: Sheridan Hough briefly talks about the importance of Subjectivity as an antidote to depersonalized Objectivity, and she applies the existential implications of Kierkegaard's Dancing Tax Collector ... Our exhausted (first) world: a plea for 21st-century...
