Warning to future religious apologists! The following two handbooks are almost identical. Only a few words are different so if you do decide to use this handbook, make sure you use the right one or you could be promoting the wrong 'faith' without realising it.
So You’ve Decided To Be An Apologist For Christianity. A useful handbook for those about to take up a career as an on-line apologist for Christianity. Contains all the trick, techniques of evasion, common lies, how to use ad hominem attacks and smug condescension for best effect, and of course a list of fallacies, when to deploy them, 'facts' which must be asserted in spite of all the evidence against them and advise on how to defend yourself from the inevitable attempts to educate and inform you with science.
So You’ve Decided To Be An Apologist For Islam. A useful handbook for those about to take up a career as an on-line apologist for Islam.

Ten Reasons To Lose Faith: And Why You Are Better Off Without It
This book explains why faith is a fallacy and serves no useful purpose other than providing an excuse for pretending to know things that are unknown. It also explains how losing faith liberates former sufferers from fear, delusion and the control of others, freeing them to see the world in a different light, to recognise the injustices that religions cause and to accept people for who they are, not which group they happened to be born in. A society based on atheist, Humanist principles would be a less divided, more inclusive, more peaceful society and one more appreciative of the one opportunity that life gives us to enjoy and wonder at the world we live in.

Thanks. Unfortunately, I have no control over what books Amazon put in there.
DeleteI'll take the money and give it to Oxfam even if it's contaminated by Lane Craig's grubby little fingers.
If you are so concerned about William Lane Craig, then why don't you debate him? I would not be surprised if you're reluctant. It seems most atheists who debate him end up looking like ignorant fools. Unfortunately, the new atheists have what's called DCDism, that is criticizing others for committing logical fallacies in arguments and having cognitive biases and errors influence your thinking, while not realizing that you are committing the same errors.
ReplyDeleteWilliam Lane Craig is more than welcome to comment upon any of my many refutations of his 'arguments', if that's not too generous a term. He can find them by searching for his name.
ReplyDeleteYou, of course, are also free to point out the specific 'errors' in my arguments which you can find through links on this page. That might be more convincing than your rather disingenuous vague smear.
When you feel up to it, of course.
And away he ran
