No, really! What would you do if you were in either Ignatius' place or that of other Christians who faced the same political peril he did in AD 107? Would you tell the Romans they should dispense with slavery and infanticide? Or just tell them they need to accept Christ as Lord? If so, how...

These days, we see way too many freshman attempts to discredit (or sometimes buttress) the Biblical conceptions of God by way of mere deductive arguments. In the following video, Christian philosopher, Greg Ganssle, briefly explains 'why' it is the case that so many merely deductive arguments...

So, the Exodus. What can I say? Here's the short of it. As many of us already know, the tendency among secular historians today is to firmly recognize that there is no evidence for the Exodus account in the Book of, Exodus. They don't see any evidence, and thus, they don't feel confident...

As various individuals from different perspectives have tried so hard to let me know, I'm not in with the status quo with how I perceive and evaluate the world. in which we live. Apparently, and according to others, I have a few major deficiencies in my mental logic circuits. This is the...

When I first read Kierkegaard's "Concluding Unscientific Postscript to the Philosophical Fragments," I was enlivened by his handling of Gotthold Ephraim Lessing's epistemic "Ditch." This ditch of Lessing's essentially posits that "there is a 'ditch' between history and eternal truths that...

As a former student of Philosophy at the university level, it has come to my attention that there are a few folks who don't realize that the field of Ethics is actually a branch of Philosophy. This is a fact, and one that is readily seen within the curricular structures of just about any major...

The intro here is brief: 1) Everyone has to ponder over the essence of Christianity and attempt to make sense out of it. 2) However, in the effort to understand the essentials of Christianity, some people have been cited by others as being "heretics." 3) So, some people may be going off in...

Obviously, Eschatological/End Times issues are a concern to many of us who are Christians. But which sources on these issues are most pertinent, I wonder? Out of the following list of books on these issues, which of these in your view do you think I should keep and which ones should I ignore...

In the video below, youtube podcaster Analytic Christian (aka Jordan Hampton) interviews Dr. Doloris Morris and discusses the issue of how the field of Philosophy is often viewed by some Christians and how it can be of benefit. What points made by Dr. Doloris Morris do you agree or disagree...

The question for this thread is straightforward and simple: Keeping the concept of Epistemology in mind which has to do with the way(s) we justify our claims of knowledge, how and by what method does a Christian "know" when he or she qualifies as, or has been given the status of, an authentic...

Where political philosophy among Christians in America is concerned, we might ask ourselves whether or not a firm subscription to Socialism would be a better way to go than sticking with a continued adherence to a modern, individualist capitalism, one seemingly plagued by a constant allowance...

I'll keep this OP on a simple level. Here's our target: Revelation 13:18 18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. That number is 666. Christians have been attempting to decipher the meaning of Revelation 13:18...
