Understanding Skepticism

Skepticism isn't the enemy of faith—it's the foundation of intellectual honesty. Here's what sets skeptics apart.

Skeptic

Open to evidence but requires proof

  • Questions religious claims
  • Willing to examine evidence
  • Values logic and reason
  • Open to changing views with proof

Agnostic

Uncertain about God's existence

  • Believes truth is unknowable
  • Neither affirms nor denies God
  • Takes a "wait and see" approach
  • May avoid the question entirely

Atheist

Actively rejects belief in God

  • Believes no God exists
  • Often has strong objections
  • May view religion as harmful
  • Can be open or closed to dialogue

The 5 Core Questions

Is there actually evidence for God?

Can the Bible be trusted historically?

How do you explain suffering and evil?

What about other religions?

Hasn't science disproved Christianity?

Responding to New Atheism

Ultimate fully formatted resource providing point-by-point refutations of New Atheism's major claims. Addresses the movement that began with The God Delusion (Dawkins, 2006), God Is Not Great (Hitchens, 2007), and The End of Faith (Harris, 2004).

Comprehensive refutations of six major claims: (1) Religion is the root of all evil, (2) There's no evidence for God, (3) Faith is belief without evidence, (4) Religion is a delusion, (5) Science has disproven God, (6) The Bible is full of contradictions. Includes deep analysis of each claim, exposes New Atheism's methods, presents scholarly responses, and demonstrates Christianity is far more rational and evidence-based than New Atheism admits.

From Kyle Lauriano:

"I was exactly where you are right now—skeptical, questioning, convinced Christianity was false. But I couldn't ignore the evidence. I challenge you: Don't take my word for it. Read these resources. Investigate for yourself. If Christianity is false, evidence will expose it. If it's true, you owe it to yourself to find out."

"Ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." - Jeremiah 29:13 (KJV)
