Can Only One Of Us Be Right Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jul 5, 2010

In Christianity we have God revealed to us in a way that none other can claim, as a God who gives up his own life to bring all people back to himself.

It uses much of his argument though with various additions by myself. I guess we’re all aware of the Atheists’ conference held in Melbourne in February. You may even ...read more
