Commentary To Books I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist

To some, the concept of having faith in a higher power or a set of religious beliefs is nonsensical. Indeed, many view religion in general, and Christianity in particular, as unfounded and unreasonable. Norman Geisler and Frank Turek argue, however, that Christianity is not only more reasonable than all other belief systems, but is indeed more rational than unbelief itself. With conviction and clear thinking, Geisler and Turek guide readers through some of the traditional, tested arguments for the existence of a creator God. They move into an examination of the source of morality and the reliability of the New Testament accounts concerning Jesus. The final section of the book deals with a detailed investigation of the claims of Christ. This volume will be an interesting read for those skeptical about Christianity, as well as a helpful resource for Christians seeking to articulate a more sophisticated defense of their faith.

Discuss Containing Books I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist

Given to me by a friend...but I could barely get through the first 10 pages. Premise: it takes alot of "faith" to be an atheist, and takes less faith to be a Christian...ipso facto, just give in and be a Christian before you go straight to Hell! Also, began rambling about how the Old Testament is the most meticulously maintained historical record ever! Okay, I have better things to do with my time. I'm not an atheist anyway, just not a fundamentalist Christian! I'll take my chances. Jesus, save

It was really hard to get through the first few chapters because they were so patronizing, but I muddled through the book so that when it comes up in discussions about religion, I'll know what people are talking about. It did get more interesting as it went on, but there were many logical fallacies, as other reviewers have also said. For instance, the Road Runner Tactic is key in knocking down Atheist arguments, such as when someone says "nothing is absolute" you can say "is the statement that

I love that Geisler and Turek put their argument up front. It gives the book a solid structure, and it gets the conversation going. We can get right to the point. I liked less the tone. They write with an I'm-smarter-than-you vibe that will likely turn off those who most need the information. Finally, while I understand the snarky reversal intended by the book's title, it may do more harm than good. It plays into mistaken notions of "blind" faith. It misunderstands what faith is and how it's

I would choose fewer stars if I could. Maybe faith is required to purport the truth of any non-Christian way of viewing the world, but complete and utter intellectual dishonesty is required to present this material. I'm not that intelligent, and I can blow shotgun holes through the arguments presented. They attempt to prove the validity of a theistic approach, as well as the inerrant Word of God(Bible). Which is what they prove. However, if I attempt to disprove the inerrant Bible, I can do so

This book takes a basic approach to defending Christianity as a l/ogical choice. The first portion is geared from a scientific perspective and how the world could not come into existence on its own, which includes discussion of the 2nd law of thermodynamics. Due to there being a creator (the book does not endorse creation science, but more so intelligent design) there must be a God (Jew, Christian, or Muslim). The authors then discuss the possibility of miracles, which must be true based on how

This book probably represents the best case Christian apologetics can make in the twenty-first century. But that's not saying much. Geisler and Turek divide their book into several broad arguments for theism before moving on to the more specific argument that Christianity is the only true religion. These broad arguments include the "cosmological argument," which deals with the beginning of the universe, the "teleological argument," which deals with the design of the universe and of life on

This book was amazing and helped me a ton. Great for anyone who may be dealing with any atheistic friends or someone who is just curious about the scientific reasons atheism and evolution are not true.
