If you are a pro-life man, like me, then you’ve heard a hundred times that men need to shut up about abortion. Apparently, we men have no right to talk about abortion unless, perhaps, we’re voicing pro-choice solidarity. #girlpower.   Why should men be silent? – The “No Womb, No Say” Position    Just being honest here, some men probably do need to shut their pie hole, but that’s because they’re lying, manipulative, idiot, blowhards. I’m sure you’ve met a few of those. Fortunately, that’s not every man. Some men have a word worth hearing. They can even have a timely word of protest against abortion. Sadly, a lot of people still believe that men have no right to protest abortion. This is the “no womb, no say” position. Now “no womb, no say”…

Not My Jesus: A List Of Christological Heresies

Apologetics, Christianity, christology, Church Councils, Creeds, Gospel, Heresy, Jesus, John Ferrer, Orthodoxy, Theological Apologetics, theology, Theology and Christian Apologetics, Trinity, www.IntelligentChristianFaith.com
Jesus Of Nazareth Is the most disputed character in history. Most of the world’s religions incorporate him into their teaching, whether as a morally perfect prophet (Islam), a divine manifestation (Baha’i), or a reincarnated god (Hinduism). Buddhists believe he is a grace-giving demigod or even a Buddha. Christian cults like the Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Mormon Church readily incorporate Jesus as a partial divine, more than man but less than the full deity of Father God. Almost all of Judaism rejects Jesus as a false prophet, a mere mortal, and a failed messiah.[1] Meanwhile Atheists and skeptics tend to see Jesus as a liar or a lunatic. Mythicists debate his very existence with skeptical weapons set on eleven. Clearly, Jesus of Nazareth is a contentious character. So we should not be surprised…

100 Gorillas vs. 1 Man

100 Gorillas, Apologetics, Christianity, FreeThinkingMinistries.com, Gospel, human exceptionalism, imago Dei, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, philosophical anthropology, philosophy of mind, Tim Stratton
The internet has been buzzing with a hypothetical: “Could 100 men defeat a fully grown gorilla in a fight?”   As a former MMA fighter and coach, I’ve seen the limits of human strength—and the power of teamwork. I’ve trained with Olympic medalist wrestlers and UFC champions. Based on that experience, I’m convinced that 20 heavyweight, Olympic-caliber wrestlers or UFC champions could bring down a gorilla. Not because they’re stronger pound-for-pound, but because they’re strong enough together, and—more importantly—smart enough to devise a plan and execute it. So, yes, 100 average men using their reasoning powers, coordination, and willpower could defeat one gorilla. But let’s flip the script: Could 100 gorillas outwit a single reasonable human? Absolutely not. Even with sheer numbers, gorillas lack the intellectual hardware and cognitive faculties to engage in metaphysics, abstract reasoning,…

Why the Foundations of Islam Are Now Crumbling with Dr. Jay Smith

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Dr. Jay Smith, Islam, Mecca, morality, Muhammad, Muslims, philosophy, Podcast, Quran, religion, theology
Did the prophet Muhammad actually exist? How did the Qur’an come into existence? And did Islam really begin in Mecca? If you think you know a lot about the historic origins of Islam–think again! Frank welcomes Dr. Jay Smith to the program, a legendary defender of the faith and top Christian apologist to Muslims who spent over two decades at the legendary Speaker’s Corner in London. Dr. Smith shares personal experiences from his years evangelizing Muslims, challenging Islamic claims, and navigating the theological and historical issues at the core of Islam. During this eye-opening conversation, Frank and Dr. Smith tackle questions like: What was it like to evangelize at Speaker’s Corner in London for 25 years and why is it a magnet for Muslims? How did the events of 9/11/2001…

Why Your Atheist Friend Will Never Change His Mind (Unless…)

Apologetics, Atheism, Christianity, dialogue, Evangelism, faith, fideism, Gospel, https://smartfaith.me, logical fallacies, Practical Apologetics, Theology and Christian Apologetics
Ever feel like talking to your atheist friend about faith is like hitting your head against a brick wall? You’ve tried explaining, debating, carefully exegeting Bible verses, but they just don’t get it after repeated corrections. You’re starting to wonder if they ever will. Sound familiar? You’re probably thinking, “Why do they keep twisting what faith really means?” It’s like they’re stuck in this loop, misrepresenting faith as some blind leap without evidence. You’ve been patient, clear, and respectful, but nothing seems to change. It’s enough to make anyone want to throw their hands up and walk away. But hang tight. There’s a reason for their stubbornness, and it’s not just about being argumentative. The truth is, atheists often fall into hidden fallacies that keep them from truly understanding faith.…

Has the Holy Spirit Stopped Working? PLUS Is the Bible All We Need?

Bible, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Holy Spirit, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, Sola Scriptura, theology
Why does the Church seem so ineffective (and sometimes corrupt) when it claims to carry the truth? Does this mean the Holy Spirit is no longer at work? And why does Frank recommend so many books on his podcast: isn’t the Bible all we need? Tune in this week as he tackles these pressing listener questions and quickly recaps last week’s popular series on the Book of Revelation and the end times while addressing other questions like: Why would God allow His Church to be so corrupt, chaotic, and unfaithful? Do we need to sense the Holy Spirit working in our lives in order for Christianity to be true? Despite its shortcomings, what positive impact has the Church made in the West and all over the world? What is the…

Religious Pluralism: What About Those That Have Never Heard the Gospel?

Apologetics, Christianity, Evangelism, Exclusivism, Gospel, Inclusivism Categories: Theology and Christian Apologetics, IsChristianityTrue.Wordpress.com, Pluralism, Steve Lee, Theology and Christian Apologetics, tolerance, universalism, World Religions
Several years back my eldest son who was in fifth grade at the time was brushing his teeth and getting ready for bed. He stepped into the hall and yanked the toothbrush out of his mouth, slinging toothpaste against the wall, and asked, “Dad, dad! What about those people who have never heard about Jesus? Do they go to hell?” First, what fifth grader thinks about such things when they are brushing their teeth (apparently mine). Second, this has been one of the formidable issues that I believe any reflective Christian can contemplate. The issue at hand is that it seems unfair to us for God to not provide salvation to someone just because they did not get a chance (because of historical or geographical reasons) to hear the gospel…

What Should We Think About Angels & Demons? with Pastor Allen Jackson

Angels & Demons, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Islam, morality, Pastor Allen Jackson, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
We see the battle between good and evil throughout the Bible and in the world around us. But do angels and demons influence our lives today and if they do, how do they interact with us? Joining Frank on the program this week is Pastor Allen Jackson from World Outreach Church in Murfreesboro, TN. Under his humble yet confident leadership, the church has grown from fewer than 30 people to over 15,000 since 1989. His new book, ‘Angels, Demons & You: Unseen Spiritual Influences in Our Lives‘, provides a biblical perspective on the reality of spiritual forces and how they impact our daily lives. Together, Frank and Allen answer questions like: What happened to Allen’s mom that led to his whole family being born again? How did World Outreach Church…

The Day the Veil Was Torn: An Evangelical’s Awakening in London

Antifada, Antisemitism, Antizionism, Apologetics, Christianity, Gospel, Islam, Islamism, Jihadism, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, London, October 7, Shia, Spiritual Warfare, Tim Orr, Zionism
I spent years studying Shia Islam from within, earning an MA in Islamic Studies from the Islamic College in London. My goal was to understand Islam on its terms, not merely as an outsider, but as a serious student of its theology, history, and lived reality. This academic path wasn’t just about gaining knowledge; it was rooted in a deep desire to build bridges between Christians and Muslims through respectful dialogue. I believed that rigorous study, combined with empathy and grace, could overcome centuries of misunderstanding and mistrust. That belief shaped my posture in interfaith spaces for years. However, on October 7, 2023, I was confronted with a reality that no classroom or textbook had prepared me for. What I encountered in the streets of London that day shook the…

What do the surprising connections between Old Testament figures and Revelation reveal about the Bible’s divine authorship? Dr. Chip Bennett and Dr. Warren Gage return to continue their fascinating conversation with Frank about the true context of Revelation. Together, they’ll explore how the Old and New Testaments mirror one another in profound and intentional ways—shedding new light on Jesus, prophecy, and redemption. In this episode, they’ll answer questions like: Why was Jesus named after Joshua? How does the battle of Jericho relate to the Book of Revelation? What’s the significance of Jesus meeting the woman at the well? What evidence suggests that the Book of John & the Book of Revelation were written together by John? Who is the beast described in the Book of Revelation? How is Joseph a…
