A lot of fundy lay Atheists and skeptics online have felt threatened by Tavo San Abri's journey from a devout Atheist to a sympathetic Jesus-respecter, who sees a lot of value and merit in the Christian cause. Desperate to disbelieve no matter what, they dismiss Tavo's powerful empirical and statistical findings supporting the truth of Christianity, such skeptics simply deny that Tavo ever...

I have special guest, Stephen Paul Edwards, o nthe show to speak about his newest book "The Venus Fly Trap: Sex, Lies, and Repercussions" which provides a brutally honest synopsis of his life's journey as a non-religious Spiritualist.

Is human epistemology and rationality possible if naturalism is true? David Johnson unfortunately mixed up the days (cause he knew he'd lose this one jk :P), thus I fill in to probe and prod Phil Bair's argument that natural determinism is incompatible with knowledge (i.e., a justified true belief).RSM Blog (with free scholarly sources) = https://realseekerministries.wordpress.com/2026/03/...

There has been a avalanche of recent Shroud studies involving AI technology to discover various new aspects about the Shroud. From a marketing perspective, I have always been a part of the "laggards" class of AI tech, I'm skeptical of it value and suspicious of any conclusions drawn based on it. But, it is important not to let my bias get in the way of God's truth and thus, I inv...

The Atheist host of Skeptics and Seekers, David Johnson, completed a 10 week series arguing that Jesus and the New Testament directly contradict and thus abolish the Old Testament covenant in several ways. The Biblical truth is that Jesus and the NT fulfilled the Old covenant- watch as David and I debate the issues. RSM Blog (with free scholarly sources) = https://realseekerministries.wordpress.co...

I present my unique argument for God from Beauty whereby I argue the best explanation for the 7 aesthetic facts of our world is Theistic Dispositional Realism. The Atheist Juan from Modern Atheism goes for Aesthetic Subjectivism instead. Who's right?

Happy New Year Real Seekers! We have a jam packed January full of shows and special guests, but I just wanted to start the year off with a short video giving a Biblical response to the Rabyd Atheist who has taken it upon himself to rechristen me as "Rancor Seeker" in order to include me in his childish Star Wars inspired Atheistic fantasy world. While such juvenile jovialities are amusin...
