You’ll recall the groundbreaking announcement we made in our post Another Climate Change Science Hockey Stick Graph where we revealed the alarming hockey-stick shaped incline in the number of climate change scientists practising in the world today.

January 13th, 2010 9 Comments
Outside the New Zealand blogosphere, in the greater online world, there exists the Biblioblog list: a list of blogs from anywhere in the world that each post on biblical issues. To our international readers this probably is not news but to some of our kiwi readers it will be. Every month this list is ranked […]

John Loftus on Calvin, Matthew Flannagan and Psalm 14
January 11th, 2010 17 Comments
John Loftus from Debunking Christianity is at it again. In his recent post, When Psalm 14:1 Says Atheists Are “Fools” This Can Be Easily Refuted, he suggests he can easily refute the idea of biblical inerrancy and cites me to assist him in doing so! Unfortunately he makes several straight-forward mistakes. Given that he has […]

Grr: On Naming Names the Court has Suppressed
January 11th, 2010 4 Comments

Being world-famous-in-New-Zealand bloggers and TVNZ One News Anchors… We are used to putting our heads into the lion’s mouth (or at least Matt is), I find it better to just tame the lion myself… Sorry, I took these […]

A Response to The Dunedin School’s “Thinking in Tatters: Moral Relativism and So-Called ‘Counter-Examples’”
January 2nd, 2010 9 Comments
In my previous post, A Response to The Dunedin School’s “Thinking in Tatters: Moral Relativism and Hidden Objectivist Assumptions”, I addressed some criticisms levelled at a talk I gave on moral relativsm by Deane from The Dunedin School (TDS) blog. In a follow up post, which, once again, I cannot link directly too as TDS […]

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.
