James A replied to Jin-oh Choi's discussion 'Climate Change Skeptics and Religion'"I would be interested to know what you read about the climate science pertaining to the the tree rings? Seems client scientists have explained the tree rings but the deniers keep repeating over and over."
James A commented on Ashley Will's blog post 'Unwrapped a Christian Book'"I read Josh McDowell when I was still a Christian and found his arguments to be so bad as to 'not even be wrong'. I read parts of Strobel's but doesn't take long to see his weaknesses.
I was studying apologists to see if they…"
James A replied to Desirai's discussion 'I feel ashamed of some atheists.'"I am not sure of how the majority of atheists made the decision to not believe in a god. But, as far as myself, I did it because of research and critical thinking. I studied the Bible, history, archeology, and science. It certainly wasn't for…"

James A replied to Desirai's discussion 'I feel ashamed of some atheists.'"I prefer to leave out the coffee."
James A replied to Desirai's discussion 'I feel ashamed of some atheists.'"I think it is all in how you present your case. I find that many times, I don't have to do a thing but ask questions and watch the answers spin towards entropy. Nothing quite like using someone's own "evidence" against them.

My advice would be to…"
James A replied to Shine's discussion 'Looking for Study Bible Recommendations'"Christian scholarly materials, such as the Anchor Bible, helped to show me the inaccuracies of the Bible.
If I remember correctly, the "conquest" was accomplished by tribes inhabiting the mountains, then slowing moving into the plain by…"
James A replied to Desirai's discussion 'I feel ashamed of some atheists.'"Desirai, you didn't offend me :)
I would never go to a theists forum, especially to harass them. Most people wouldn't do that face to face but the internet allowing people to be anonymous leads some to to think they can act any way they…"
James A replied to Shine's discussion 'Looking for Study Bible Recommendations'"The Anchor commentaries are excellent! My local library has them.
For a Bible, the New Oxford Annotated Bible is good.

James A replied to Misty: Baytheist Living!'s discussion 'Carnivore, Herbivore or Omnivore...'"Interesting discussion :)
Since most of the worlds population lives in cities, how are these people supposed to get free range meat? Are they supposed to hunt for meat? If so, how? Current population of the U.S. living in cities -…"
James A replied to Misty: Baytheist Living!'s discussion 'Carnivore, Herbivore or Omnivore...'"I'm in. Pizza and beer three times a day!"
James A replied to Misty: Baytheist Living!'s discussion 'Carnivore, Herbivore or Omnivore...'"I agree that this diet is way off base. May be pseudoscience but I think in the author of the books mind it is just another money making opportunity. It will fade as all the other fad diets have. But this person will have made their money.
