Phillip A Ross

Buttal And Rebuttal Phillip A Ross

This is a theological/philosophical discussion that provided an opportunity to defend the faith (1 Peter 3:15). The initial concern was about homosexuality, but it quickly moved to the underlying godless worldview that motivates various kinds of unbelief. The opponent is an educated atheist. This discussion provides a study of competing world-views that allowed the author to speak about Christianity in a way that he hasn't done before. And it provides an in-depth exposure of the ideas inherent in the growing movement of contemporary Atheism. In this regard, it exposes some of the misunderstandings of Christianity that are fueling this movement, and might provide some guidance to Christians about how to address some of these issues in a more productive way. The conversation has been edited slightly in order to make it flow better by removing extraneous elements and correcting spelling and punctuation, which are often casualties of modern communication technologies. For the most part, it has been reproduced just as it happened over a couple of months.
