Popular radio host and podcaster, Justin Brierley, has been creating and facilitating constructive conversations about faith for more than two decades. He is an expert in Christian apologetics and has had a ringside seat as believers and nonbelievers alike have debated Christianity. Surprisingly, Justin has come out on the other side of these debates more convinced than ever of the truth of Jesus’ claims―and the power of good conversations. With this book, you get to watch Justin as he engages with the most unlikely of conversation partners on the subject of faith.

Excerpts from the book Unkilling Jesus which highlight some of the key discoveries implied by new theories about the origin of the Jesus Myth. The idea that the Romans invented Christianity is the basic premise of new theories about the origin of Christianity.

Understanding the Book of Revelation is the third and final book in the series about the conflict between Paul and Domitian over Paul’s version of Christianity which is found in the gospels. My goal is to elaborate on the story hidden between the lines of the Pastorals (Coded Messages in the Pastorals), the sealed letters of Revelation (The Seven Letters of Revelation – A Radical Interpretation) and this book (Understanding the Book of Revelation). My goal with this last commentary is to finish the study, and, of primary importance, to demystify the Book of Revelation. Toward this goal,...

What if I told you that in a few short minutes, I could disprove the existence of God? Skeptical? I know I would be, but whether you are an atheist, like me, or a fervent believer, this small booklet will challenge what you think you know about knowledge and the existence of the divine. Plus, I’m funny. I’ve been an atheist activist for over 30 years and I have talked to hundreds of religious believers of varying religions and degrees of belief. I’ve heard all the arguments for the belief in a deity and found them insufficient. I’ve been active in the greater atheist community and ...

This is a collection of poignant, engaging, and often humorous thoughts and anecdotes about disturbing aspects of the world of religion. This is a book for religious skeptics. They will find that far from being alone, they are in elevated company. Throughout history a high ratio of major thinkers, scientists, writers, reformers, scholars, champions of democracy, and other world changers have been and continue to be religious skeptics. Many risked their lives to confront the power of the ignorance, stupidity, and wrath of religion. This book, a testimony to them, is also for the unknowing, ...

This book represents one section of my book Unkilling Jesus . I have separated out this section of the book because I believe it can stand alone and make a case that the gospels have been fabricated. This book describes that fabrication and how it served to create, eventually, the religion known as Christianity. (Please note that there is an already published book excised from my book Unkilling Jesus. It also stands alone and make the argument on how the fish symbol became associate with both Titus and Jesus. This book is called The Mark of Titus .) This book is about love for the mind of ...

The human being has the need to understand and explain the world. Since human groups have replaced the nomadic way of life with a sedentary lifestyle, established in cities, religions have grown in importance as a source of answers to the world around us. The ancient religions were tribal, contained several gods and went through syncretism with the religions of other tribes and states. Of the tribal gods one has become the most influential today, YHWH, or simply God, as most people know. YHWH has left throughout history to be a tribal god in a polytheistic society, to be the unique God of ...

The purpose of this book is to establish the theory that the apostle Peter is an alias for the Jewish historian Josephus. To support this view, we must connect both names to the Flavians, and in particular, the Roman general Titus. What does it mean that Josephus functioned among the Christians as a man named Peter? Why would he want to be called Peter? Who were his compatriots, his helpers, the men and women who helped him keep up the façade? To answer this, we must examine what facts of reality would have made it possible for him to function as Josephus as a writer of history and Peter ...

Building on the foundation of "Deconstructing Religion," Derrick Day plumbs new depths by discussing religion's (particularly christianity's) relationship with sexism, racism, politics, and money. Day also takes on how quantum physics provides plausible explanations for spirituality, and how flirting with atheism is essential to religious deconstruction.

I see Christianity, as we know it today, as an outgrowth of mostly one mind and one perspective and that is the mind and perspective of Paul the apostle who was the alter-ego for another man who lived and wrote in the AD 80s and AD 90s. What I have discovered is that Paul, in writing about himself, is not writing about philosophy and movements that were later molded into a world religion; he is writing firstly about the very real events in which he participated, and only secondarily about his own singular effort to concoct a new religious perspective.

Más allá de religiones y dogmas, ¿sabes que te han dado la capacidad innata de conocer fácilmente muchas maravillas sobre Dios?, ¿sabes usar correctamente ese poder? Dios es, sin duda alguna, el misterio más relevante y profundo del que podemos ocuparnos. Pero ¿cuáles son los principales argumentos lógicos que pueden formularse en favor de su existencia?, ¿son realmente consistentes?, ¿pueden resistir las respuestas de la crítica atea?, ¿no desaloja la ciencia a Dios?, ¿quién creó a Dios si Él creó todas las cosas?, ¿se basta el universo a sí mismo para explicar su ...

Religion, An Obstacle to Human Progress, is a bold indictment of the world of religion. Not only are the major world religious belief systems antiquated, divisive, and dysfunctional, they are tied into seemingly unsolvable political, economic and environmental problems. The author points to the direction that some of humanity is heading and that all of humanity must go. Throughout the book, described as “a browser’s delight,” the author’s thoughts are reinforced by quotes from some of the world’s best thinkers. Interspersed are personal narratives from the author’s time as a ...

This award winning book explores the bestowed quality upon us called 'Life' through the lens of philosophy and psychology. The 149 parables and poems on the various aspects of existence are just a page or so long, but may make the reader ponder for a good while. And, hopefully, sometimes recognize and laugh at oneself. 'It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.' - Aristotle The book aspires to go beyond the 'your God - my God', 'God - No God' debates and tries to analyze the motives of the entity that created us. 'Religion's eleventh ...
