Critiquing “I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist” (Ch. 2, Part 1)
Do atheists have ulterior motives for not believing in God?

A critique of I DON’T HAVE ENOUGH FAITH TO BE AN ATHEIST, p. 42-43.
Critiquing “I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist” (Ch.1, p.40-49)
When last we left our heroes (I mean authors Geisler and Turek, not Joe and me… lest there be any confusion), we had just been introduced to their patented Road Runner Tactic.
Critiquing “I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist” (Ch.1, p.35-39)
And now to the meat.
With Chapters 1 and 2, Messrs. Geisler & Turek seek to prove, as you might expect, the first two points of their case for the Bible. These points are:
Truth about reality is knowable. .2 The opposite of true is false.
I’d divide their first …
Critiquing “I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist” (p.17-19)
The 12-point argument for the Bible’s divinely-inspired authority doesn’t actually start until Chapter 1, but Mssrs. Geisler and Turek make a couple of assertions in their book’s introduction (”Finding the Box Top to the Puzzle of Life”) that require addressing – and more importantly, also begin to reveal a tendency they have to manipulate their …

Battle of the Giants
There’s only one possible debate between a skeptic of the Bible and a Christian apologist I would care to hear more than Dr. Robert M. Price vs. Dr. William Craig Lane: a debate between the aforementioned Dr. Lane and Dr. Jeremy Beahan (unfortunately not yet the recipient of a Wikipedia page) of the always-excellent Reasonable …
The Land of Milk and Jam?
I need a new religion.
Or a philosophy – I’d be OK with that, too. I’m not limiting myself to theist solutions. Any and all world views may apply.
My cousin recently wrote on his Facebook page: ”Well, it’s official, college is a wrap. The question now is, are we going to at least try …
The Bible Role Playing Game
So I’m poking around the internet for a directory of given names for Midianites or Amalekites and I find this – a step-by-step, program-assisted guide to creating whatever Canaanite name you want.
