Reading Time: < 1 minute Here is the third and final instalment of the critically acclaimed philosophical trilogy looking at criticising the Kalam Cosmological Argument.

Guest Post – Sam: The Problem with when You Are Born

Reading Time: 2 minutes Thanks to “sam” for this guest post (reposted again) that he created based on one of his comments the other day: In Jonathan’s post titled, “Inter-Testamental Moral Relativism,” a hypothetical exchange between an atheist and an Xian highlights the morally relativistic nature of a fundamentalist worldview that defends the idea that executing a man for […]
