The audio for the God or Godless Edmonton Debate is Here!
Of the three debates we had on the “God or Godless Alberta Tour”, the final night in Edmonton was the liveliest. So even if you’ve already listened to the first debate in Calgary, you can find something worth checking out here: different conversations, different questions, and a different moderator in Myron Penner. Myron definitely added his […]
God or Godless-The Audio Debate is Here
Here it is folks, the audio for our first night’s debate in Calgary. You can listen to it by clicking here. (I recommend you right-click and download the file rather than listening from the website.) The opening statements are 20 minutes each followed by forty minutes of back-and-forth, no-holds-barred, cage-match-style, sudden-death dialogue. The final forty minutes consists of […]
John Loftus blogs about the “God or Godless Tour”
Check it out here. From podcasting on the highway to debating in a church to a pint of microbrew late in the evening, a good time was had by all.
Counter Apologist reviews “God or Godless” … and Randal responds
You can read the review here. Counter Apologist provides a balanced review and has great things to say about both Loftus and me and the book itself. However, as you can guess, CA was more critical of me. Indeed, he states this rather baldly as follows: “That all said, I’m an atheist, of course I think […]
God or Godless in Edmonton
Each of the first two nights of the tour we had about fifty people which wasn’t bad since we had virtually no promotion in Calgary or Red Deer. (Things would have been very different had we done the tour during the university semester, for in that case we could have had the events on University […]
God or Godless in Red Deer
Last night John Loftus and I had our second debate at Unity Baptist Church in Red Deer, Alberta. I am happy to say it was another excellent mix of Christians and atheists. The Q&A with the audience got a bit heated at times, though not as much as the previous night. Particularly notable was the […]

The views of one Christian who was at the God or Godless debate
You can check out Paul Buller’s account of the debate here. Paul thought I “won” the debate (to the extent that it is helpful to speak of such events in terms of winning). Of course, I guarantee many of the CFI people who were there thought I was the big loser! I could tell by […]
Debating Loftus: An Update
Yesterday John Loftus and I debated “God or Godless” at Renfrew Baptist Church in Calgary, AB. This evening we debate at Unity Baptist Church in Red Deer, AB, and tomorrow we square off for our last night debating at Greenfield Baptist Church in Edmonton, AB. So far it has been an engaging and busy series. […]
Robert Price and winning the debate by fiat
Robert Price reviewed God or Godless in Free Inquiry Magazine and John Loftus is over the moon about it. He emailed me and the Baker publicist yesterday to let us know. In his email he gleefully wrote: “Unfortunately [Price] doesn’t have anything good to say about Randal’s arguments saying I ‘systematically punctured’ them like one who popped […]
The latest “God or Godless” review
The latest review comes from the “Panorama of a Book Saint” blog. You can read the review here. The blogger, Dr. Conrade Yap, liked the book and was more sympathetic with my arguments (not surprising given that he is a Christian theist). However, Dr. Yap does say some things that left me perplexed and suspecting […]
