A jury in New York City has found Donald Trump guilty in all 34 felony charges, of lying about campaign money. American Evangelicals, and Fundamentalists, seriously need to consider finding a different candidate for president, in the Fall election. As I have said before, the Republican Party...

Again, what does this article have to do with Christianity? Rowlings does not speak for the Christian Church.

? What does this have to do with Christianity?

You are asking a good question. But your "demonstration", includes a lot of Christian assumptions. You need to be explicit in listing your assumptions. ---------- ---------- For example, your biblical passages describe homosexual behavior, and that it is condemned in the Jewish-Christian...

It's hard to evaluate putting this statue, there, from a Christian point of view. The integrity of Billy Graham seems to be beyond question. And I have no problem with that. I would say the same about Fr. Boyle, who founded Homeboy Industries, which has brought thousands of gang members out of...

I would rather follow the example of the Church in the early centuries. Murderers would not be allowed to take Communion for 10 years. Women who had abortions would not be allowed to take Communion for 9 years. So, the early Church places abortion very near to the place of murdering a...

(One of my concerns with this topic, is that the younger generations of American Christians, cannot explain why Christians should react any differently than demonstrators on college campuses. You can claim that the recent college demonstrates were not Christians (I think that some are), but...

There is a trend among feminists, to point to every word in the Bible indicating being a witness, or announcing something, as being support for women being evangelists, etc. But given the common biblical language of this language of witnessing and reporting, this is like saying that the...

Hey, maybe if the meteorological societies named the hurricanes Matthew, Mark, Luke and John... then the insurance companies would stay in Florida???? I don't think so. A lot of Florida retirement homes are no more than 12 feet above sea level. And those who bought them or built them, didn't...

(There is a trend in established Christian groups, to reject historical doctrine. The recent Methodist split is an example. And by rejection, I include such radical re-interpretation as to be incompatible with the early historical creeds of the united Church. I would say, that including this...

(I find so many of the comments on this topic, are the projections of personal value systems upon God. Also, there is a common theme of assuming that a righteous life, should not include struggle or discipline or training. I think that these objections tend to be very parochial, and American...

I'm not sure what to do with your truisms. You don't address the branches of the Church that did not engage in the Protestant Reformation. You don't address the Lutherans, many of whom hold to a high church theology that is very similar to Catholic theology. Among younger American...

It's problematic to use the wording "prove the Bible to be true". Who is the authority to proclaim which detail in the Bible, being proven by archeology, would "prove the Bible to be true". There is quite a bit of archeology that is consistent with the biblical record.

Why is this a topic for Christian apologetics???

It's ridiculous to turn every appearance of a woman in the Bible, into a theological statement. This topic of being an "evangelist", also includes the problem that the Greek word has multiple meanings. To announce news, is quite a bit different than the gift of being an evangelist.
