Must an Atheist Be Omniscient? Re-Visited
I have just read your reply to the question “Must the Athiest be Omniscient”. While agree with some of your conclusions, other made little sense and as an athiest with an interest in religion (as an observer of course) i’d like to ask a few f...

Why Depress People?
Dear Dr Craig I'm not a Christian myself, but find Christian theology to be interesting and your defence particularly interesting. I've heard you mention on numerous occasions that you believe a life without God is absurd, meaningless, pointless etc....
