What is caused?
From the IAmAnAtheist.com comment form and personal correspondence Your unending conversation is pointless. If there was a big bang then there was a being that caused it. Nothing that comes into existence does so without a cause. What’s so hard? I’d be happy to discuss this with you. Just to make sure we are on [...]
Evidence for the Bible
From the IAmAnAtheist.com feedback form Your web-site makes it sound as if there is no evidence that the bible – specifically, the old testament – is true. Do you really feel that there is no evidence that the Bible was written by God? I mean, I know you don’t think it was written by God. [...]
Prison for the just
I have a question for evangelical Christians about justice. Imagine that there is a man named Max who is serving 30 years in prison for murdering his wife so he could collect her life insurance. Five years into his sentence, Max honestly and sincerely becomes a Christian. At that point, Jesus has accepted punishment for [...]
God or Satan?
From the IAmAnAtheist.com feedback form: Your “tract” about Satan is a clearly a cheap shot at Christianity. It is below your dignity.

Where else could a moral sense come from? It could not evolve because there are many things (ie. Killing rivals) that are against moral [...]

The Problem of Evil: Response
From a comment on a post: Well,what if God wanted to show his great power by letting evil exist? God, with infinite power, could destroy all the evil in the world but how much would that do for him. Wouldn’t there need to be a contrast from good to evil for either to be recognized? [...]
Faith in atheism
First off let me start off by apologizing. It was hard for me to not start off with a smart remark so per request I’ll tone down the humor. “As an aside regarding your example, humans are scientifically classified as apes.” So we are apes? I don’t think so, at least not in the sense [...]

How prayer works
I think I’ve made myself clear on this subject. If you don’t understand you don’t want to. Sorry to hear you say that.
