If you are a Christian like me, chances are that your take on the idea of “miracles” is similar to mine. Intellectually, you believe that Jesus really did heal the sick and raise the dead and was resurrected himself. Intellectually, you believe that (at least in general terms) that miracles and healings still happen today….
Welcome to “Part 2” of my look at Tucker Carlson’s Patriot Purge. In “Part 1,” I described what I felt was the main thesis and four main claims that Carlson made, and then I highlighted what Carlson said regarding the people he highlighted in his documentary. Let’s first recap the four main points: (1) Looking…
A little over a month ago, Fox News host Tucker Carlson came out with a three-part series on his Fox Nation streaming-site called Patriot Purge, in which he said he was going to look into the details of last year’s riot at the Capitol on January 6th. Immediately, even before it was made available, a…
We now come to Part 2 of my look at S. Joshua Swamidass’ book, The Genealogical Adam & Eve. In my previous post, I attempted to lay out the basic thesis and argument of his book, namely that Swamidass puts forth a speculative hypothesis as a way to “heal the divide” between those Christians who…
Two years ago, S. Joshua Swamidass came out with his book, The Genealogical Adam and Eve: The Surprising Science of Universal Ancestry. He contacted me and offered to send me a free copy to review on my blog. To be honest, I was a bit hesitant because, looking at the preview on Amazon, it struck…
Last week, Jason Lisle put out his third installment in which he offers his critique of William Lane Craig’s new book, The Quest for the Historical Adam. Lisle’s post is entitled, “The Historical Adam: A Worldview Based on Fact or Fiction,” and the title alone is quite telling, for as I’ve noted in the earlier…
This post is going to be a slight departure from what I normally write about…and I’m giving myself no more than one hour to do it. But over the past week or so, I’ve been watching the unfolding news, both about the Kyle Rittenhouse trial and the recent indictments coming from the Durham Investigation. As…
A few days ago, I started a series on the recent criticisms that YECist Jason Lisle has had about William Lane Craig’s new book, The Quest for the Historical Adam. As I said in Part 1, I haven’t yet read WLC’s book, but have seen a few interviews and read a few articles about it….
Last month, Jason Lisle of the young earth creationist organization, Biblical Science Institute, began a blog series in which he critiqued William Lane Craig’s recent book, The Quest for the Historical Adam. To date, he has written two parts in his series with more to come. Now, I haven’t written that much lately on either…
Chances are that virtually no one reading this post is an “expert” in the minor prophets. In fact, if we were being totally honest, aside from a few more famous verses among the Old Testament prophets, most people’s eyes quickly glaze over if and when they try to actually sit down and read, let’s say,…
