I finally got around to reviewing this eloquent response to CS Lewis. It's often heavy reading at the start of each chapter, but it's always accessible by the end of each chapter. :)

Some new reviews I wrote in the last few weeks (and also longer ago).

And what makes things even worse is when he says "evil cannot exist without god." What a dick. I guess he thinks there'll be suffering in heaven (which CS Lewis claimed in The Problem of Pain).
BrettpPalmer on has addressed this issue on YouTube.
First off, this is another self-aggrandising thread. It is also, however, crucial to the next generation of children, especially those being homeschooled/brainwashed by the Evangelical crowd.
I have linked my review to God is All-Good, because the contradictions between this book, the rest in...

Because as a public entity, the advertising they provide would be a public service. As such, they should not discriminate. I am a staunch supporter of religious freedom (even though it's largely nonsense).
Why can't this be settled by boycotts? As long as they're willing to pay for the...
Is TfL a public entity, providing services for the general public? If so, then they should allow the adverts. It's not like they're printing bomb-making instructions or advocating violence. It's just plain ignorance.
I think they should be permitted to plaster their hate-filled uninformed bigotry on buses. It's not on the level of funeral-picketing, and one can simply look away.
As Hytegia implied, however, they should also allow adverts for gay pride parades as well.
Honesty and research are not required for PhDs in theology. All you have to do is be willing to defend the faith at all costs, take byzantine leaps of logic and accept the annual stipends.
He runs a mediocre pint-sized blog, cross-examined.org
He wouldn't be worth mentioning if not for his role in NOM's campaign to garner undeserved pity for him. As you can imagine, they omitted a surfeit of pertinent facts.

Thanks for the advice. :) I have taken a more comprehensive approach in tackling one of Paul Copan's more recent books (Is God a Moral Monster):

I appreciate your candor and understanding. Writing my gripes down was a gargantuan help (I wish I had that level of support when I was in high school). The best way to avert suicide is to actually listen to the people in question, and not dismiss their complaints as "whinging." The canned...
Sadly, this isn't a Poe, or a parody of the heartfelt, compassionate Roald Dahl classic.

Written by Comfort, published by right-wing reactionaries at World Net Daily. Need I say more?
