An Orientation to Kierkegaard

Jack Crabtree

 A conversation about how to assess the writings and thought of Soren Kierkegaard with Gutenberg College tutor and bible teacher Jack Crabtree. Jack will focus primarily on (1)  Kierkegaard’s concept of faith and the relationship between his view of faith and reason; (2) Kierkegaard’s “existentialism”; (3)  Kierkegaard’s emphasis on the “subjective” nature of truth; and (4) Kierkegaard’s assessment of Christendom, church, and tradition.

A Logical Critique of Radical Atheism

Dr. Norm Lund

    Richard Dawkins is a famous scientist from Oxford U. and a leading atheist.  He argues that there no more evidence for belief in God than for Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy.  He says that “faith-heads” who believe in God are “ignorant, stupid, or insane.”  In his book, The God Delusion, he claims to prove that religion is a “vice” based upon “indoctrination.”  Belief in God, according to Dawkins, is a “delusion”: “a persistent false belief held in the face of strong, contradictory evidence” (Preface, p. 28).  However, when his arguments are examined objectively, they prove to be riddled with fallacies.  A fallacy is an argument which appears plausible on the surface, but which is found to rest upon false or invalid assumptions.  An overview of Dawkins’ book, The God Delusion, reveals a confused web of logical fallacies.
