Por qué es un error decir que todas las religiones son iguales

Al Serrato, Apologética, Cristianismo, Español, Evidencia, Preguntas sobre Dios, Preguntas sobre la fe, Religiones, Teología, Verdad
Por Al Serrato Todos los años se producen en Estados Unidos miles de delitos en los que no hay testigos ni apenas pruebas. A veces, el autor del delito deja una impresión dactilar -una huella latente- en algún lugar del escenario del crimen. En el pasado, estas huellas tenían poco valor para identificar al delincuente; antes de poder realizar una comparación, la policía debía tener ya un sospechoso conocido. Hoy en día, los agentes de la ley tienen acceso a una tecnología mucho mejor, en forma de AFIS, el Sistema Automático de Identificación de Huellas Dactilares. Mantenido por el FBI, alberga los datos de millones de impresiones dactilares, lo que permite comparar una huella latente desconocida con millones de delincuentes conocidos. En cuestión de minutos, el ordenador del AFIS puede…

What Would It Take To Prove That God Doesn’t Exist?

2. Does God Exist?, Al Serrato, Answers to Skeptics questions, Apologetics, Atheists arguments, Christianity, God, Jesus, religion, Skeptics, theology, Theology and Christian Apologetics
By Al Serrato Atheists who feel certain that there is no God are staking out a rather interesting position. As a corollary of their position, they are of course also convinced that those who believe in God are engaging in a form of wishful thinking, that their desire to believe in a “cosmic judge” of good and evil clouds their thinking, preventing them from following where “the science” actually leads, as they believe they have done. Indeed, many believe that religion is no more than the opiate of the masses. But a bit of careful consideration will lead to quite the opposite conclusion. Holding to atheism may have some superficial appeal, as the theist must concede that it is not possible to directly see or experience God. But pretending to…

Podcast: Play in new window Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Android | iHeartRadio | Email | TuneIn | RSS We don’t possess the original New Testament papyrus scrolls. They deteriorate too quickly to have survived this long. So how do we know that the manuscripts we have now are accurate representations of the originals? Is it reasonable to believe that they have been corrupted and embellished to falsely say that Jesus rose from the dead? Detective J. Warner Wallace joins Frank to answer those questions. He cites a technique that law enforcement uses to ensure that evidence from murder or any crime isn’t corrupted. It’s called the Chain of Custody. Is there a chain of custody that secures the evidence about the identity of Jesus from the time…
