Christians vs. Skeptics: The Ultimate Charitable Competition

November 20, 2020 by Randal

Last year, I sponsored a fundraiser for the Against Malaria Foundation that pitted skeptics against Christians. The U.S. fundraiser raised $660 (US funds) while the Canadian-based fundraiser raised $1250 (Canadian funds). I plan to launch another fundraiser this year on Giving Tuesday (December 1). However, my goal this year is to double both totals. And to […]

A Quick Word of Thanks

December 23, 2019 by Randal

All told, our giving resulted in the purchase of 799 mosquito nets which will prevent the suffering […]

Christians and Skeptics Can Change the World Together! Won’t You Join Us?

December 9, 2019 by Randal

On Giving Tuesday, I launched a fundraiser for the Against Malaria Foundation (AMF). Why the AMF? Because with their mosquito nets they are dollar-for-dollar one of the most effective NGOs in the world today at decreasing/preventing human suffering. And I thought that was a wonderful way for Christians and skeptics to join together in a […]

Give a Little Bit: My Super-Duper Christian/Skeptic Anti-Malaria Fundraiser!

December 3, 2019 by Randal

I’ve had the Supertramp song “Give a Little Bit” running through my head this morning, and for good reason. After all, it is Giving Tuesday. So, here’s the pitch: if you have benefited from my blog, tweets, YouTube videos, and/or books, I am asking you to consider giving. But I’m not asking you to give […]

Running to make cancer history, one step at a time

September 30, 2015 by Randal

In his magisterial book The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer, Doctor Siddhartha Mukherjee tells the story of a dreaded disease, and the indomitable human spirit that has fought it throughout our history. Cancer is a hydra-headed beast, and our struggles with it will only increase in the future. As the fight continues, […]
