The case for God is not a case of the God of the gaps

“We don’t know how life came to exist, so let’s just give up and assume that God did it!” Atheists are fond of portraying theism as the God of the gaps,  or a means of filling in gaps in current scientific knowledge. But, quite to the contrary, what we currently know about biology leads inexorably to…

Why randomness explains nothing.

Why cite God as an explanation when random evolutionary processes do the work of creating life from non-living matter just fine? This is a core atheist argument which presents itself over and over again in atheist books and online forums. But, unfortunately for atheists, randomness is entirely useless as an explanation for the origin of…

How atheism relies on "special pleading".

Atheism claims to be scientifically based but demands exemptions from accepted methods of scientific reasoning and from scientific laws.
