Reviewing Darrell Bock’s Conversation with Sam Eaton, Kat Armstrong, and Nika Spaulding Recently Darrell Bock had three individuals on his program who identify as millennials. The gist of the program was to talk about, yet again, why millennials are leaving the Christian community…in droves apparently. So, let’s take a […]

To pick back up on Bob Siedensticker’s responses to TAG, I turn to response number 7: TAG Undercuts Itself. Bob says, Apologists jump into a TAG presentation using logic. At the end of their argument, they conclude that God exists. Once again, Bob confuses what some apologists might do with […]
In the spirit of transparency, I am not a politically oriented person. I find the political dance to be one of the most nauseating dances available. It disgusts me top to bottom. I like things to be said directly, bluntly, without ambiguity. Here is an example: You are of your […]
Bob Siedensticker has a way of oversimplifying, well, just about every view that he disagrees with. Bob’s first step is to oversimplify, then misrepresent and equivocate if necessary, and then refute. When it comes to the transcendental argument for God (TAG), he remains consistent in his method. For starters, Bob […]
Atheist Objection # 10 Is this actually the case? Has evolutionary theory answered the question of where we came from. Bob argues: “I simply say that science has a remarkable track record for teaching us about reality, while religion has taught us absolutely nothing. Religion makes claims—that there is life […]

Thus the Christian story is a myth like the rest.” [Objection #8] We now move to the eighth objection to Christianity proffered by Bob Seidensticker over at Patheos, from his blog, Cross Examined. From my perspective, there seems […]
Objection #7 I now move on to atheist objection #7 as outlined and defended by Bob Seidensticker over at Patheos. I have had a chance to interact with Bob over the last few days and in my assessment, he is a run-of-the-mill nothing special kind of atheist. In other words, […]
Atheist Objection #6 There are two ways to respond to this argument. First, we want to understand what the argument claims. The argument claims that Christian belief is the product of cultural conditioning. Understanding an argument or objection is a very critical first step in the process of answering questions […]
Atheist Argument #5 Up to this point, I have demonstrated how the first four of Bob Seidensticker’s arguments have failed, despite his view that they logical valid. Each one has been weighed at this point and found wanting. I now come to what I would call an argument that has […]
