Questions and Responses

Question: Sam Harris writes, "Every devout Muslim has the same reasons for being a Muslim that you have for being a Christian...." How can one tell which "holy book" is true and which is not? Isn't it one man's word against another man's?

Question: An atheist friend has tried to persuade me that ethics and morality can be derived...by determining what behavior would be beneficial for most people and thus for the survival of mankind. I find it difficult to dispute his point. Can you help?

Question: Why would Jesus have to use some huge catastrophe in order to make his appearance on earth? And why would Christians rejoice over such a tragedy, with complete disregard for the lives lost?

Question: ...What could be more foolish than a book which claims to be God’s Word and sets rules that most people never heard of and then condemns them for not obeying these rules?
