- graderjs 5y agoI love this both for providing another window into an ancient interesting text and for the style of the article itself. This author is really talented it's a really enjoyable read.

- philipswood 5y agoI love the quote: “My chief purpose, is not to advise atheists on what I think they should believe; I want merely to make sure that they have a clear concept of what it is they claim not to believe.”
- graderjs 5y agoMe too! It's like another way of looking at the whole subject that I never thought of before. A refreshing different perspective where you can get outside the blinders of the usual debates and really think differently. I'm looking forward to reading this guy's books. He seems seriously entertaining in a way that's also going to enrich me by reading him :)
- brodouevencode 5y agoSo many of the atheist arguments are based on assumptions and overall ignorance of scripture. But sadly a lot of self proclaimed Christians don’t have good countering points. That coupled with an overall diminishing faith in western cultures (because as far as I can tell it’s being replaced with other normative values) and we can see that Judeo-Christian values are quickly being eroded.
