Is God Impossible?
When St. Thomas Aquinas wrote his great Summa Theologiae, he listed only two objections to the existence of God (the problem of evil and the apparent ability of science to explain everything), even though he tried to list at least three objections to each of his views.

The Bible Verse That Destroys Protestantism?
Protestants like to call themselves the “Bible” Christians as opposed to Catholics because they can often produce many scriptural proof texts to support their unique beliefs.

Religious Conversion and Deconversion: Your Part in the Process
Religious conversion / deconversion is often thought to be a gradual process akin to a freeway on-ramp. Another model, however, has proven successful and more accurate in the scientific and sociological fields that I think can be fruitfully applied to the religious conversion experience.
