Martin Sellner, Brittany Pettibone, England, Catholicism, and Islam

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4glysfmgOC0&t=640s

A few days ago, Austrian Identitarian activist Martin Sellner and his girlfriend, American science fiction author and journalist Brittany Pettibone were released from custody in a British detention facility.  Sellner and Pettibone were both attempting to enter the UK for different reasons.  Sellner wanted to give a speech at Speakers Corner in London.  Surely he would have been challenged by Islamic apologists.  Brittany Pettibone wanted to interview EDL founder Tommy Robinson.  This was good enough to deny them entry into their nation state and illegally detain them for three days.

Jordan Peterson, Matthew Vines, and Gender Pronouns

In case you’re not aware of Matthew Vines and what he does, he’s the founder and Executive Director of The Reformation Project.  The Reformation Project is an organization that tries to get Churches to collapse on homosexuality and accept the “LGBTQ community” and agenda.

Further Thoughts on the McDowell vs Vines Debate

In the debate that I previously reviewed, I explained how I thought Sean McDowell did a good job of sticking to the text and not going for the red herrings of Matthew Vines.  I agreed with McDowell’s answers, though I would have had a slightly different answer to one of the challenges of Vines.  

Expanding the Recommended Reading Section

One of the new books added to the list

When I first started this website back in 2015, I wanted to make a Recommended Reading section.  When I originally made it, I only put a few books on the list and they were very basic.  I’ve learnt a lot more about apologetics dealing with the online community since then.  I now have a better idea about what is important and where focus needs to be put.  I hope that my readers find this helpful.  Here are my recent additions to the list:

The Islamic Jesus by Mustafa Akyol

A Review

Earlier this year, the Turkish Islamic scholar Mustafa Akyol came out with the book The Islamic Jesus: How the King of the Jews Became a Prophet of the Muslims.  The book is interesting, I’ll say that much.  I had meant to read it earlier but other things got in the way.  I picked it up yesterday and finished it today and am now going to share some of my thoughts on the book.

Why Didn’t the Reformation Happen in the East?

My icon of St. Nicholas of Myra that I purchased in an Orthodox Monastery in Serbia

Has anyone asked the following question: why didn’t the so called Reformation happen in the East?  Why didn’t it happen in Russia, Serbia, Romania, Greece, Armenia and other Eastern Countries that call themselves Christian.  This is something that I’ve thought about for a long time and I believe that I’ve found the answer.

Judaism vs Zionism…and Donald Trump

Donald Trump has recently announced that America will now recognize Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel.  Also, he has initiated a process where the embassy will be moved to Jerusalem.  This obviously has huge ramifications for the Arab Israeli conflict.  I won’t comment on that here, but I do want to talk about the history of Zionism.

Orwell Would Be Proud of Michael Coren and “Christian” Leftists

To this day, 1984 is one of my favorite works of fiction.  George Orwell certainly knocked it out of the park on this one.  It’s because of having read books like this and studied logic that I know how to see past slippery language. 

The Fall of Michael Coren

Michael Coren is the first person to block me on Twitter.  I’ve been a harsh critic of his.  About four years ago, he endorsed homosexual “marriage” and started attending an Anglican Church since they take a more liberal approach to sodomy.  Of course, the Anglicans of old would consider this to be full blown apostasy but rationality seems to go out the window for enemies of Jesus Christ.
