We also discuss Michael's debate history, and which debates he's most pleased with. He explains his personal debate preparation strategy, and we wrap it all up with a discussion of Genesis!
Read MoreWhat's Hell & Why Are Many Atheists Still Afraid? (with responses to Cosmic Skeptic & Tracie Harris)
For many atheists, the seemingly unfair nature of hell is too hard to swallow. On the other hand, a lot of them continue to fear the possibility of hell even years after rejecting Christianity. It just might be that much of this has to do with misunderstandings about the nature of God, and what Christians actually believe about the ultimate state of the unbeliever. In this episode, we'll take a look at what atheists are saying, and lay out the Christian positions on the issue.

Lawrence Krauss is well known for claiming that the universe could come into existence from nothing.

Read MoreChristopher Hitchens: A Christian Response to His Most Popular Statements
It is with great reverence that I respond to the late great anti-theist, Christopher Hitchens. There is much to commend about the man, even from a Christian perspective. Naturally, there is much that he said to which believers may object. In this video, I deconstruct his typical case against theism with an eye toward charity. I recognize that though he likely would not have responded to a youtube video, at least in life he could have. He cannot respond now, and I admit that this is a bit unfair. Nevertheless, I believe he would approve of the endeavor. It is out of respect for the man that I take his ideas seriously, and criticize them straightforwardly.

Read MoreThe Kalam Doesn't Mention God: A Response to Rationality Rules
The Kalam Cosmological Argument is consider by many to be one of the best arguments for God's existence. However, it's common for skeptics to point out that it doesn't mention God, and so it can't be an argument for God. Stephen Woodford's (Rationality Rules) video which claims to debunk the Kalam cosmological argument has been passed around in the atheist community quite a bit. Capturing Christianity's Cameron Bertuzzi responded, and Woodford wasted little time in firing back. In this video we'll take a look at Rationality Rules' dominant defense of his video, and answer the question: should apologists ditch the Kalam since it doesn't mention God?
