Did Kenneth Hagin Plagiarize E.W. Kenyon?

September 24, 2019 by Jason Petersen Leave a Comment

The Bible tells us not to lie and not to bear false witness (Leviticus 19:11, Exodus 20:16). In this article, I will address […]

Would the World be Better Off Without Religion?

September 18, 2019 by Jason Petersen Leave a Comment

A World Without Religion? Often, people will say that religion is poison, or they will say that the world would be better off without religion.

Branches of Apologetics

September 9, 2019 by Jason Petersen Leave a Comment

Written by Jason L.

Which God?

February 18, 2014 by Jason Petersen

Written by Jason Petersen A common objection by atheists to any first-cause argument is asking, “Which God?” Oftentimes, when an argument is presented, such as the Kalam Cosmological Argument, or the Argument from Motion, the atheist will say: “Well, you haven’t proven that it was your god that created everything.” This article will be addressing […]

Falsifying The Flying Spaghetti Monster

November 14, 2013 by Jason Petersen 8 Comments

Written by Jason Petersen Could the Flying Spaghetti Monster have created the universe? There is a fundamental distinction between the way that Christian apologists approach proving a negative and the way that atheists approach proving a negative.

The Existential Argument against Atheism

November 1, 2013 by Jason Petersen 13 Comments
