Former Christian Becomes an Atheist Because of Ken Ham?
The Christian Post is publishing an eight-part series about Christians who are “Leaving Christianity.” The series “explores the reasons why many Americans are rejecting the faith they grew up with.” I have to say that some of the reasons these former professing Christians used to justify their rejection of “the
When This One Thing is Gone, It’s All Over

Darwin’s Dangerous Idea and Its Real-World Consequences
How does the modernist create a moral center in the Darwinian struggle for life? The usual answer is “doing good” that benefits the species. Being kind, for example, has a good result. But is this always true? How does anyone know?
It’s Not Who Homosexuals Are … It’s What They Do that Matters
There’s a great deal of sloppy thinking going on about human sexuality. Many Christians have capitulated on the topic of same-sex sexuality. They’ve given into the premise that God’s Word does not disapprove of such relationships. Students at some Christian colleges are the worst offenders. Students and alumni at Taylor

THE ATHEIST’S DILEMMA REGARDING SOMETHING CALLED ‘EVIL’
Given an atheistic or even an agnostic starting point, how can someone be outraged by evil? Without God, being outraged over the presence of evil is a subjective notion borrowed from the Christian worldview. “If God is nothing,” according to Russian novelist Feodor Dostoyevsky (1821–1881), “everything is permitted; if God
Ricky Gervais and Stephen Colbert Debate the Existence of God
Ricky Gervais is a comedian. He’s also an atheist. God thinks some things are funny. He believes atheists are funny. I bet He thinks Gervais is funny when he claims God does not exist. There’s even a Bible verse about God laughing at things that strike Him as amusing. He’s

Why the US is Falling Behind in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics
I read an interesting article on why the United States is no longer leading the world in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). It seems we’re having to import talent from China, Iran, and India. We put men on the moon in 1969 with mostly American engineers, scientists, and mathematicians.

‘Bind, Torture, and Kill’ Murderer Is the Epitome of Blind Moral Indifference
BTK (Bind, Torture, Kill) serial murderer Dennis Rader blames everyone but himself in an interview for an upcoming documentary: “It’s a demon that’s within me.” Or, it maybe it was his mother who he had “a little bit of [a] grudge against.” A recent article declares, “We think of psychopaths
Two Atheists Walk into a Bar
If there is no God, can there be morality? I’m not asking whether atheists are moral people and do moral things. They do, but by what unimpeachable and ultimate standard? An atheist might say that certain laws are good for the advancement of the species. But let’s not forget that

“Meager and deterministic theories that see the universe as sheer matter, ruled by physics and chemistry alone, leave no room for human consciousness and creativity.” — George Gilder, Life After Google (2018).

‘Murder Capital of USA’ In Search of “Values”
Chicago is a perpetual crime scene. There are more Americans killed in the city of Chicago than are killed in Iraq and Afghanistan combined. Liberals blame it on guns. The thing of it is, a hundred million or more people have guns and the vast majority of them don’t shoot

Women of ‘The View’ Argue for Abortion Like Slave Owners Argued for Slavery
