Like I said yesterday, I decided in my mid-teens that I was going to follow God no matter what men said about Him, and that more than anything else led to my eventual rejection of Christianity. When you try to go beyond what men say about God, to the reality behind the words, you discover [...]

Oh, Hell.
April 15th, 2012 
Deacon Duncan Over at Evangelical Realism, this week’s post is all about William Lane Craig’s attempt to defend “The Hell with Christianity.” I think he ends up making a rather convincing argument for God being a purely imaginary deity, but see what you think, if you’re interested.
Life in the Kingdom?
March 31st, 2012 Deacon Duncan Do you live in the buckle on the Bible Belt? Are you a skeptic, unbeliever, or other form of non-Christian sojourner there? The Uncredible Hallq is hosting a discussion for people to share what the secular experience is really like for someone in the midst of the Kingdom of God. Strange as it may sound [...]
Well darn.
March 29th, 2012 Deacon Duncan I had a feeling Mighty Timbo was bailing out when he ended his last comment here by saying, “Contact me again when you’re interested in genuine discourse.” A strange thing to say, considering that “genuine discourse”—as opposed to following a Jack Chick style script—is exactly what I have been doing, and what he appears to [...]
The “independent sources” of the New Testament
March 11th, 2012 Deacon Duncan [Here's an excerpt from this week's Evangelical Realism post on Chapter 9 of William Lane Craig's book, On Guard.] Ted and Shelly are driving down the road one day when they see an minor accident up ahead, with a policeman and a wrecker already on the scene. Being bloggers, they stop and ask the policeman [...]
Speaking of slavery…
March 10th, 2012 Deacon Duncan If you haven’t yet stopped by Libby Anne’s blog, you should at the very least check out this post about Kirk Cameron and Doug Phillips. Phillips teaches that a woman is never to be out from under male authority no matter her age or marital condition, and that being under male authority includes complete submission [...]
Deceived by appearances
March 4th, 2012 Deacon Duncan For those of you who may be interested, we’re still going through William Lane Craig’s book On Guard over at my other blog. Here’s an excerpt from today’s installment, discussing the so-called appearance of Jesus to the soon-to-be Apostle Paul on the road to Damascus. Notice, this is an appearance of Jesus, just like all [...]
Uh oh
February 10th, 2012 Deacon Duncan Via Ed Brayton comes news of a new FtB blog: Biodork. Everybody stop by and say howdy, eh? But wait, what’s this? The first post I see has her agreeing with Bill O’Reilly? That doesn’t sound good. Oh, never mind—she just caught Bill in a moment of sanity and lucidity. Carry on. And welcome, Biodork, [...]
I’m my own grandpa
February 5th, 2012 Deacon Duncan This week at Evangelical Realism, we take a look at one big factor that William Lane Craig leaves out when trying to decide what Jesus must have meant by “the Son of God.” According to the Gospels, Jesus’ mom was impregnated by God Himself, making Jesus God’s (bastard) son—a relationship of mere biology rather than [...]
Any shoe that fits.
January 29th, 2012 Deacon Duncan There’s a new post up at Evangelical Realism covering more of Chapter 8 of On Guard by William Lane Craig. Last week, we saw Craig use his 6 criteria of authentic history to try claim that Jesus really did call himself Messiah. As evidence, Craig cited a number of passages in which Jesus did not, [...]
