Curious as to anyone’s thoughts on Thomas Paine’s Age of Reason; he makes valid points and it’s hard for me to find where he’s wrong. Raised catholic, ‘turned atheist’, open to all possibilities but still feel there are too many problems for me to buy into The Bible or Christianity (how can one trust a house if the foundation is faulty?)
Haven't read it but curious, how is the foundation faulty?
The Bible is the most trustworthy piece of classic literature there is. Especially the new testament, if you cant trust that, you cant trust that anything in our history books ever happened. Read “Case For Christ” for a better explanation.
Great book. I'd also recommend his follow-up "Case for Faith" which is a succinct and scientific take down of all things evolution. Good ammo to dismantle any die-hard evolutionist you might know.
Another good take down of evolution is Stephen C Meyers’ Signature in the Cell. Not only will you learn about how improbable evolution is but how DNA works and it’s quite impossible for DNA to evolve they Darwin proposed. It is follow up to his first book Darwin’s Doubt that focuses more Darwin and his own doubts about evolution.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've written it down in my "Books I need to Read" list.
