A Lesson in Apologetics
February 5th, 2008 by tempe
I watched this video this morning. It’s featured on James White’s website, and it is a breakdown of some of the arguments of the notorious atheist Christopher Hitchens. It’s a pretty good analysis of why one’s theology matters, why even the best of philosophers (Bertrand Russell, anyone?) can make irrational missteps in logic when they attempt to suppress the knowledge of God in unrighteousness:
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. ~ Romans 1:18-21
Enjoy.
