I Don't Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist
September 26, 2014 at 4:00 pm (This post was last modified: September 26, 2014 at 4:02 pm by Mister Agenda.)
I agreed to let my step-mother order this book by Frank Turek and Norman Geisler for me, and I promised to read it. It has arrived.

It's a Christian apologetics book, and it starts out painful in its smugness, strawmanning, and well-poisoning; and promises to get worse. I suppose it will be educational on the topics of slick debating tactics and rehashed arguments, but I may long for a clean death before I finish reading it...or at least need a new desk after I wear mine out banging my head against it.

I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
