The Top Three Turn-Off’s of Christianity | The Confident Christian: "In the near countless debates and conversations I’ve had with both unbelievers and believers alike about Christianity, there are without a doubt three top stumbling blocks or “turn-off’s” that have surfaced in most conversations that are either one of the reasons non-Christians say they won’t consider Christ or that have caused Christians to struggle in their faith. Although there are certainly plenty of other items that unbelievers cite as to why they won’t embrace Christianity or that believers mention that they find difficult, here are the top three obstacles that I’ve seen come up most times."

Atheist Group Says Ground Zero Cross Offensive: Federal Court Asks, Why?
Atheist Group Says Ground Zero Cross Offensive: Federal Court Asks, Why?: "American Atheists Group (AAG) is claiming, again, that the 9/11 Ground Zero Cross is offensive and this week a federal appeals court wants to know specifically why the group thinks so. Previously, in 2011, the AAG filed a lawsuit to keep the cross from being displayed claiming the 9/11 artifact violates the constitutional rights of atheists and was causing people to suffer from anxiety, depression, “mental pain and anguish” and indigestion"

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: 40% of the Commandments: "An atheist asked, “Can you tell me why blasphemy is a sin? Can you tell me how it's actually hurting anyone? Can you tell me why graven images are a sin? Can you tell me how they're actually hurting anyone? That’s 40% of the commandments, and you can’t even adequately justify them.”"

Question of the Week
Question of the Week: "Before this question is answered, the term “Christian” must be defined. A “Christian” is not a person who has said a prayer, or walked down an aisle, or been raised in a Christian family. While each of these things can be a part of the Christian experience, they are not what “makes” a Christian. A Christian is a person who has, by faith, received and fully trusted in Jesus Christ as the only Savior (John 3:16; Acts 16:31; Ephesians 2:8-9)."

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Seeming Contradictions: "The Bible has many seeming contradictions within its pages. For example, the four Gospels give four differing accounts as to what was written on the sign that hung on the cross."

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: If God knows everything...
The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: If God knows everything...: "“If God knows everything, why didn't he prevent the attacks of 9/11? Or the Holocaust? Or slavery?” Cosmo Vern
So you think God should step in and stop murderers? If you answer “Yes,” we will need to figure out what you think He should do. Perhaps you believe He should have killed Hitler, and taken out the 18 terrorists before they committed their murders. But if He did do that, you and your kind would whine about God killing 18 innocent Muslims who were flying peacefully on a plane, and that He killed an innocent little Austrian painter who loved Charles Darwin."

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Logic, reason & atheism.
The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Logic, reason & atheism.: "“Actually Ray, atheism is the default position one acquires through logic and reason. There is however a strong argument that belief systems of theists in the supernatural are insane, and frankly quite stupid. You may want to pray a little harder for that "wisdom" you were speaking about.” Meagain Nudderacont"
