The Birthing of Modern Christianity
Orthodox dogma never acknowledges the obvious differences between Paul and the other Apostles. It simply homogenizes Paul and the other Apostles into a single cohesive force, and then claims this single cohesive force successfully launched Christianity onto an unsuspecting world. Exactly how this mythical launch of a radical new concept was actually achieved still remains …
Making God Redundant
In this short blog I will attempt to do two things: Summarise the ideas developed in my book WHY WE CANNOT TRUST THE GOSPELS [1] Demonstrate why discrediting the Vatican's claim that Peter was martyred as a Christian in Rome would automatically makes God redundant. For centuries, Orthodox Christianity has insisted the four New Testament …
Christianity’s Achilles Heel
For centuries the Orthodox Church claimed the Gospels were historically accurate documents written by reliable eye witnesses well before the sacking of the Jewish Temple in 70 CE, and some traditional apologists still cling to these original early Gospel dates, but modern scholarship now suggests the Gospels were actually written by unknown authors well after …
Was Jesus resurrected in Jerusalem?
Some time ago, I challenged Christian bloggers to provide a convincing evidenced-based argument that proves Jesus was resurrected in Jerusalem as claimed. For the apologetic purists out there, I define proof as an evidence-based argument that confirms the veracity of a claim/assertion or an evidence-based argument that refutes the veracity of a claim/assertion. At the …
Wanted! Definitive Proof that Jesus was Resurrected in Jerusalem.
Attention all Christians. I’m seeking a detailed, stress tested, cogent evidence-based argument that claims to prove beyond all reasonable doubt that Jesus really was resurrected in Jerusalem c 30 CE. All the apologetic arguments I've seen to date, including the argument proffered below by Gary Habermas, are unconvincing arguments based on cherry picked data &/or …

Re-Appraisal of Galatians 1:19
In Galatians 1:19, Paul simply states “I saw none of the other apostles—only James, the Lord’s brother". My initial appraisal of this simple 12 word verse suggested the simple phrase “only James, the Lord’s brother" could have been a simple interpolation engineered by Marcion in the first half of the second century. Although technically feasible, …
Was Peter Martyred in Rome?
For most Christians, Peter’s alleged martyrdom in Rome serves only to reinforce long established dogma that most of Jesus’ Apostles died as martyrs proclaiming their faith. However, Peter’s alleged martyrdom in Rome also underwrites the Vatican’s authority. This is why the Roman Catholic Church categorically states [1] “it’s an indisputably established historical fact that St. …
The Christianity Myth Argument – The Real Foundational Ideas
Stuart Gray is a Christian apologist, and he and I have been exchanging emails about our views on the origins of Christianity. He recently posted an interesting critique of my Christianity Myth argument called “Could Jesus’ Resurrection Have Been a Cunning Lie?” I commented that his critique of my argument suggested he had not fully …

On Discussing Islam with Muslims & Non-Muslims
In this blog I focus on political Islam & attempt to answer the following questions: What is Islam? Why is the Koran so difficult to understand? What exactly is political Islam?

On discussing Christianity with Christians & Non Christians
Christians claim Jesus is the son of God, but what they really mean is they’re personally convinced Jesus is the son of god. Given the available evidence, it’s impossible to actually prove he's the son of god. However, the available evidence can be used to demonstrate why he's not the son of god. What’s more, …

Majority Normality v Minority Normality
As I grew up, I slowly began to realize that my perceived normality was not always the same as other people’s perceived normality. My minority normality seemed to differ from their majority normality in many different ways, and I often had difficulty understanding why they so often seemed interested in uninteresting things, and often totally …
The Christianity Merry Go Round
Or how to debate Christian apologists like Gary Habermas and win…….. Real Christians are defined by their unshakeable belief that Jesus was resurrected in Jerusalem. In reality they simply choose to believe what can never be proved. It’s called faith!!! Churches are very adept at peddling the resurrection myth, knowing full well their flocks will …
Habermas & the Gospel Evidence
Those fully conversant with Gary Habermas’s latest views about the authenticity of the gospels will appreciate the subtle but highly significant differences between the two simple arguments summarized below. Habermas’ argument can be summarized as: Peter told Paul about the resurrection in Jerusalem. Paul then propagated Peter’s claims. Unknown gospel authors then immortalized Peter’s claims …
Christianity in a Nut Shell
There’s no independent evidence supporting Christian claims that Jesus was resurrected in Jerusalem. Paul’s conversion experience on the road to Damascus can now readily be explained using our current knowledge of temporal lobe epilepsy. The existence of the New Testament Gospels can now readily be explained without resorting to divine interventions. The orthodox model of …
