The title above is a Halle Berry line off a movie called, "The Program." One of my continuing frustrations on most forums these days is running into individuals who pretend to have done their homework but haven't. In fact within a few seconds of reading a post it is clear that they haven't even...

My claim being the same as the Kalam cosmological argument. Everything that begins to exist has a cause. The universe had a beginning. Therefore the universe has a cause. This cause is God.

Recently me and a friend of mine, who came out as an atheist recently have been debating nonstop for the past month or so. I learned that he used to be a Christian himself, until he started reading the bible more mindfully. He was made aware of all the "bad things" that happened, such as God...

As we all know, our world is beset by the periodic presence of moral and natural evil, some of it is of catastrophic significance, displacing cities, maiming bodies, and at times ending lives. Sometimes tragic events happen that are seemingly unexpected, like a massive tsunami, or surreptitious...

Hi everyone, my name is James Curtin and I am starting a YouTube channel that will be devoted to evangelism, apologetics, witnessing and general Christian life. I'd appreciate if people could watch my first video and subscribe to the channel and share it so that we can spread the Gospel to as...

Recently on this apologetics forum while helping "Seekers," gain knowledge about philosophy of religion, the best atheist apologists, a few examples of good arguments for atheism, far from being "liked" or receiving "Winner," accolades, I was bombarded with mocking comments, fake definitions...

I. Argumentum ad Ignorantiam: (appeal to ignorance) the fallacy that a proposition is true simply on the basis that it has not been proved false or that it is false simply because it has not been proved true. This error in reasoning is often expressed with influential rhetoric. A. The informal...

Greetings CF Forum Members! :-) Okay, so I have these specific ideas in my head (and my heart) for this Christian Apologetics website and blog that I’ve made a little headway in starting, although I am an amateur at this and have never done anything like it before. I am seeking some food for...

We purchased The Case for Christ movie dvd yesterday at Walmart. Last night Hope and I watched it together with two friends from our church. Here’s the summary: it’s awesome! The movie is basically a testimony about the many ways in which God works to win a person’s heart. In this case, God...

Your favorites/bookmarks are bursting at the seems. If your computer blows up they're lost. This way we can find this page, recover the most important ones and/or share the wealth. Leave a subtitle and/or a heading with each link for a specific topic. For example: Christian forum...

Hey guys, Oh how I miss being 12. I had a childlike faith that simply believed I was going to heaven, it was matter-of-fact, I strived for good morals and I easily believed everything taught in my church. As I grew older I wanted something more real. My sister went to YWAM and said she had...

Hey friends! Yesterday morning I posted a thread in the "Atheism" sub-Reddit to have a civil discussion about faith and religion. To my pleasant surprise, as of writing this, over 300 users have taken interest in the discussion. The problem: I want to reply to each and every single one of them...

Recently I read an article by a Christian philosopher, Randal Rouser. He is an interesting Canadian chap who engages atheists in a friendly manner. He has written a 20-page scholarly paper entitled, "The Atheist and the Antitheist:
A Critical Analysis of the Rebellion Thesis." I have shortened...

Warning: This video will be offensive due to its manipulative nature and use of fallacy. In the, "Evolution vs. God," movie, Ray Comfort treats us to an intellectual trick. He started by showing us various people claiming to believe in the theory of evolution. He then presents the following...

Appeal to Emotion (Ridicule) Cal Thomas is a more erudite Evangelical than our last theist (see Tricks Theists Play part 1). He is a columnist and is well-respected by secular conservative media outlets as well. However, an examination of his engagement with the atheist worldview and those...

Tricks Theists Play (Part 1) In 2001 or 2002 I was invited by a Christian friend to see a presentation by an Aussie named Ken Ham. It was not just eye-opening, but a jaw-dropping experience. I listened for an hour to claims about scripture which were not supported historically or from...

A Manual for Creating Atheist Propaganda - First look at Peter Boghossian's book, "A Manual for Creating Atheists." "A Manual for Creating Atheists offers the first-ever guide not for talking people into faith--but for talking them out of it. Peter Boghossian draws on the tools he has developed...
