New endorsements for An Atheist and a Christian Walk into a Bar

August 25, 2016 by Randal

 “Imagine sitting at a table in your local bar or coffee shop and overhearing two smart, energetic, and creative thinkers go at it over the existence of the Jewish/Christian/Islamic god. Thanks to Rauser and Schieber, we don’t have to imagine: this book is that debate. Anyone who enjoys a hard-hitting but classy philosophical dustup will […]

Dan Fincke endorses An Atheist and a Christian Walk Into a Bar

August 17, 2016 by Randal

Justin Schieber just tweeted an extended endorsement for An Atheist and a Christian Walk Into a Bar courtesy of Dan Fincke. Ever mindful of my readers, I have reposted it below with Dan’s introduction. And who is Dan Fincke? He’s an academic philosopher (PhD, Fordham University), an award winning teacher, a blogger (at Camels with Hammers), and an entrepreneur who has […]

God or Godless gets blurbed (four from living scholars and four from dead ones)

November 27, 2012 by Randal

John Loftus posted the four blurbs for God or Godless today so I figured I’d follow suit. Unfortunately these blurbs stand in an uneasy juxtaposition with my philosophical reflection on blurbs from a few days ago. But I have faith that these four stellar scholars (two atheists and two Christians) are all telling the truth! […]

The Ethics of Book Blurbs

November 25, 2012 by Randal

Last week I was perusing the book tables at the ETS conference when I came across a book that featured a blurb from a friend of mine. The blurb made the book sound like a great purchase so when I saw my friend later in the day I asked him to elaborate on the book. […]

On the ethics of a Christian positively blurbing a book on atheism

July 20, 2011 by Randal

John W. Loftus’ new book, The End of Christianity (Prometheus, 2011), a collection of essays by atheists, was just released a few weeks ago. It serves as a companion volume to last year’s The Christian Delusion. And it wears its raison-d’etre on its sleeve. I intend to provide a review of the book in the […]
