Postmodernism: Ye Shall Be As Gods

Lucifer was cast from Heaven for attempting to equal God, who can have no equal. Then, being filled with evil, Lucifer tempted Eve with the forbidden fruit, telling her that if she ate the fruit, "your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and ...

Jesus and Morality

Today, an incredible thought hit me. When I realized the magnitude and importance of the realization, I honestly have to sit down and catch my breath. After debating literally dozens or hundreds of Atheists, Buddhists, Jews, Pantheists, Deists, Agnostics and a plethra of other versions of the non-believer, I realized that ...

5 Things Everyone Should Know About Evolution

"Evolution" is a word I never planned on using on Rational Christianity, given that I feel that "Evolution" has stolen the stage in the God debate, and it shouldn't have.

In light of this, many have emailed me, asking why I have not yet focused on apologetic arguments proving Christianity true (at least at the time of this writing). The answer is simple yet incredibly troubling. Before I can present Christianity in a rational manner, ...
