The prize is a $50 (US) Eisenbrauns Gift Certificate for the winner and a $25 gift certificate for the nominee. There is also a $25 gift certificate for second place. Eisenbrauns are a bookstore specialising in Ancient Near Eastern and Biblical scholarship so it is a pretty cool prize for a blogger with an interest in the topic.
A common objection to belief in the God of the Bible is that a good, kind, and loving deity would never command the wholesale slaughter of nations. In the tradition of his popular Is God a Moral Monster?, Paul Copan teams up with Matthew Flannagan to tackle some of the most confusing and uncomfortable passages of Scripture. Together they help the Christian and nonbeliever alike understand the biblical, theological, philosophical, and ethical implications of Old Testament warfare passages.
“Yes Paul I do believe cats exist” BEST BLOG EVER! Go MandM. It’s only $50 though.
I wondered if you coudl add my blog to your blog roll? thanks
Do you think blogs are ok with God, would he approve, or is it kind of selfish? Just wondered!
Blogs are just another medium of communication. I think it depends on what is written on the blog as to whether God would have a problem with blogs.
I agree with that, Madeline. When is the next Bloggers drinks night? How come you have just so many followers? Far more than the other right/Christian blogs! You must be doing something right!
The next bloggers drinks is this Thursday I think – are you coming this time?
