The Doubters’ Creed is Unleashed to the World

January 10, 2023 by Randal

Today, I read the following tweet from Matthew Hartke: Honestly guys, I’d be so stoked to find out that Christianity is true. I love this tradition and this conversation so much—nothing would make me happier than if I could, in good conscience, continue having this conversation *from the inside* with the breath of God in […]

Randal Rauser Interviews Christian Bellows

January 7, 2023 by Randal

In November 2022, I published my fifteenth book, a satire of religious fundamentalism titled Christian Bellows Timeless Truth in a World of Lies. Mr. Bellows describes himself as an “Independent Bible Church Pastor, Unaccredited Bible College President, World-Reknowned Biblical Scientist, and the Apologist of the Great Plains.” Since the book was released, I have been trying […]

Christian Bellows on the Canaanite Genocide

December 16, 2022 by Randal

While researching Jesus Loves Canaanites, I came across some truly abhorrent defenses of biblical genocide in general and pedicide in particular. For example, Christian apologists claimed that the Canaanites were evil squatters, that they were like cancer, and that killing infants would actually be a merciful act. So it should be no surprise that I devoted […]

Christianity for the Hesitant: An Interview with John Stackhouse

December 6, 2022 by Randal

Many in the learned classes in the West find Christianity to be not only false but intellectually arrested and utterly implausible. They see it as a way of viewing reality that belongs to another generation, one that it is no longer defensible for the educated person today. How does the Christian apologist respond to that […]

Christian Bellows on the Design Argument

November 28, 2022 by Randal

In this excerpt from Christian Bellows Timeless Truth in a World of Lies (A Fundamentalist Apologetics Satire) Christian Bellows gives his account of the design argument for God’s existence. If you think a big bang without a banger is crazy, you’d be right. But that’s just the beginning of the nonsensical doctrines of atheist faith. […]

Why I Think Frank Turek is an Evil Person

November 21, 2022 by Randal

Progressive Christianity is not progressive, and it's not Christian. — Frank Turek (@DrFrankTurek) November 21, 2022 Frank Turek‘s behavior in this tweet is evil. The term “progressive Christian” is every bit as diverse in lexical range as “evangelical” and has been used to refer to Christians who are demonstrably orthodox (e.g. Brian Zahnd who is […]
