That is a big bunch. Well done! Well done, brother!!! I have not read all of them, but the ones I did, I have always found were well researched and well written.
Wow thanks for your support and dropping by and reading the ones you read!!!
Not only are these kind of fun, but obviously necessary. They also show that, in many cases, a bit of critical thinking and context can go a long way. I would not be surprised in the least if you have a response like mine when, say, watching a news report or commentary, saying, “Don’t you people even think? So, critical thinking helps other areas of life as well as apologetics.So, <a href="https://tenor.com/view/congrats-congarats-yay-conga-line-conga-gif-7323300"conga-rats on the 250.

Reposted this! I’m thinking, among others, this accomplishment would be filed under “Labours of Love”. Well done, Jim! Blessings!
Thanks for sharing this post! That means a lot!! May God use your posting!! Have a blessed day!!!

Trolls pasting materials from the skeptic annotated Bible: Tell me you’ve never read the Bible without telling me you’ve never read the Bible.
I doubt some even read the skeptic Annotated Bible when they drop contents online they just want to troll
They cling to foolish men and their ideas online simply because these fools call themselves “atheists.” And these trolls can’t answer simple questions with an alleged contradiction without switching topics
Thanks for this listing and for countering all of these alleged “contradictions.” I have a good idea about the amount of time and work you put into these rebuttals, so thank you for your faithfulness.
Thank you so much for reading through them! And I do think you do understand the work behind them given your series on refuting Catholic twisting of Scripture; personally I think its more “fun” refuting the skeptic annotated Bible, with the Catholics you refuting they seem so much more well, hard to figure out where to begin unraveling their interpretation not because they are hard but they have so much assumptions upon assumptions they have reading into the text! How goes your Monday, working on refuting Broussard’s book?
RE: Unravelling the RCC
The RCC has had 1500 years of practice being a slippery serpent.
My “rest day” started out pretty hectic with the tree removal guys showing up early this morning.They removed the huge fallen trunk and cut down three other trees. They’re coming back tomorrow to do some clean-up. I’m going to cut the front lawn and try for couch duty after that.
What’s on your Rest Day agenda besides six hours on the couch?
