C. S. Lewis, in The Weight Of Glory, was reflecting on the imago dei (image of God) and wrote, “There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilizations—these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat.…

The resurrection of Christ is the center of my apologetics. While I incorporate multiple other areas into my apologetics (i.e., classical, evidential, cultural, ecclesial, expository apologetics; the reliability of the NT manuscripts, the problem of evil, ethics, transcendent arguments from beauty, morality, etc.), those are all peripheral issues that I…

I view the moral argument for God as the most powerful apologetic argument. William Lane Craig agrees although his favorite argument is the Kalam Cosmological Argument. Soon, I will soon post my version of the moral argument, asserting that an objective, transcendent source for morality must exist or moral chaos…

I was asked to comment on this somewhat bizarre video wrestling with whether Jesus was “given an honorable burial.” The skeptic in this debate is apparently Ricky Brock (also known as CaptainDadPool), who also happens to be the volunteer Pennsylvania state director (?!) for American Atheists.

A.S. Ibrahim warns here about the naivety of progressive Americans regarding Islamists who seek to exploit American freedoms in order to ultimately promote Islamic dominance. He sounds a wake-up call, offering four recommendations: First, we must promote education about the ideological roots of political Islam, exposing texts and agendas that…

John Daniel Davidson paints a grim picture in his book Pagan America, of where America is headed if it follows Canada, Belgium and the Netherlands down the slipperly slope into full-scale euthanasia. After chronicling real-world cases where euthanasia was pushed by the Canadian Social Medical bureaucracy in place of medical…

Crab fishing on the Bering Sea is one of the most dangerous jobs. Survival after having to abandon ship is tenuous at best, even with survival suits. Many have tragically died. This effort to save a crew and the reactions of people involved, evidences the instinctive understanding that human life…

There is a report here of a man who slipped abortion pills to his unknowing, pregnant girlfriend who subsequently suffered a miscarriage. Officials are now charging him with homicide. I see this from time to time. I remember the case a while ago of a man who shot a pregnant…

In John 14:6 Jesus declares that he is “the way, the truth and the life.” But what does it mean that Jesus is “truth”? Why is he truth incarnate? To answer that, we must first understand what “truth” is. Truth corresponds to reality; it always mirrors reality (this is what…

Given the state of public education, I suspect many young people have no idea who the Marquis de Sade is. (The word “sadism” derives from his name.) He was the first person in modern times to write openly about abortion and affirm it. As Davidson notes in Pagan America, Sade’s…
