Author and skeptic Guy P. Harrison returns to Atheists Talk to
discuss his forthcoming book, 50 Simple Questions for Every
Christian. Continuing in the tradition of his previous "50 Things"
books, this one is addressed at helping Christians and
non-Christians explore each other's viewpoints. From the
publisher's description: "This is a friendly and conversational
inquiry about basic Christian beliefs from a sceptical viewpoint.
Despite waning church attendance, Christianity continues to be one
of the most influential forces in the world. As such, it's
important that everyone gains some understanding of the basic
Christian tenets and that Christians understand why non-Christians
may react with skepticism to their worldview. This unique book
poses fifty simple questions about Christianity that will hopefully
foster mutual understanding between Christians and non-Christians.
In a respectful style that is friendly and conversational, the
author tries to shed light on Christian beliefs. Each question is
followed by commentary and analysis that is skeptical and tough but
never argumentative or condescending. Designed to promote
constructive dialogue, "50 Simple Questions" will enlighten,
educate, and inspire thoughtful reflection on topics that are
central to history's most popular religion." Please join us for
what is sure to be an entertaining introduction to Harrison's new
book.
