Is the Bible relaible? It makes many historical claims in its narratives.

Immanuel Kant greatly impacted the world's philosophy and thought life. One historian says that all philosophy post-Kant is an answer to Kant.

Dr. Richard G. Howe joins me in unpacking this further. Dr....

Politics and ideas like Christian Nationalism are in many circles controversial. The culture war is a hot button topic. Have you ever wondered what left wing and right wing really means?

One of the most liveable worldviews, certainly more so than naturalistic atheism. African Traditional Religion has a deistic view of God and they believe in a spiritual realm that has an influence on the physical plain.

Did Karl Marx worship Satan? Was he truly a hero of the working class? Did his ideas benefit the world?
