Recently I posted on the dangers of making too much out of relatively minor errors in the Bible and to focus more on the more difficult inconsistencies (link). For example, the following three offer the Christian apologist a lot more to chew on:
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
