What are the Characteristics of a NT Christian?

[Harry Nevis]

a. God is the best explanation why anything at all exists.
b. God is the best explanation of the origin of the universe.
c. God is the best explanation of the fine-tuning of the universe for intelligent life.
d. God is the best explanation of intentional states of consciousness.
e. God is the best explanation of objective moral values and duties.

These are NOT the arguments, they are the conclusions of a series of arguments. 

IMPORTANT: it is the cumulative case for Christianity that is rational. Atheists like to pick a component and claim--that's not convincing enough...so therefore your belief is irrational. That is simplistic and disingenuous.

And, of course, "best" means whatever you want it to mean in this context.  Just like "explanation" isn't really an explanation at all. Not to mention the irony of saying atheists dismissals are "simplistic and disingenuous" after the list of simplistic and disingenuous crap.
