ID.Plus: Hawking, God and Philosophy

Here is a great blog that I'm going to begin following. I heard about it from one of Brian Auten's tweets. He has post several talks and resources from Dr. Peter Williams. They have been very useful! In this blog post Dr. Williams weighs in on the comments that have been made by Dr. Stephen Hawkings regarding the origins of the universe. I think it's counterproductive for scientists to look down on philosophers and vice versa. Its not possible to get a clear and accurate understanding of reality without science, philosophy, and theology together.

Apologetics 315: Apologist Interview: Bruce Little

This week Bruce Little was interviewed by Brian Auten of Apologetics 315. I can't recommend the site or this series high enough. I've heard quite a few helpful talks and lecture of Bruce Little through this blog. I think the subject matter of Theodicy is great importance. I would love to know why when this subject shows up in the media or on the history channel why they never interview scholars like Dr. Little. You know....people who know what they are talking about! Take a listen to this interview

Tawapologetics: Response to Common Sense Atheism's Response to 'Does God Exist?'

How do you know when you've made waves and caused people to think? I think one way to be able to tell is by how strong the backlash is. As you may remember last April, Brian Auten over at Apologetics 315 had a vision of about 23 bloggers coming together and writing essays giving the most convincing arguments they know of why Christianity is true. I was blessed to be one of the contributors. As it turns out that the series is still generating controversy given that there some thoughtful articles being published against it. Luke over at Common Sense Atheism is posting a series of articles to rebutt the essays published at Apologetics 315. He started with Tawa's essay Does God Exist? A Brief Blog Essay Bad idea. It's a very strong essay and well-done...however Luke does write an essay worthy of response with Tawa gives at the link below.

I'm not sure if Luke plans to try to rebutt and answer all 23 essays, but if he does I'm sure that all the original contributors are more than able to stand by what they have written. This is going to be interesting.
