One of the Most Amazingly Absurd Examples of “Don’t Confuse Me with the Truth” Mindset Found Amongst the Worst Islamic Apologists
James White, , Islam
It is truly hard not to laugh out loud at this one. Someone on Twitter sent me this link this morning. I have become accustomed to the “we can’t argue with you, we are clueless about history and logic, but we can make outrageous claims and get our fellow jihadis to think we are brave” attitude of certain Muslims on

On Remaining Sound in Islamic Apologetics
James White, , Islam
Dan Wallace posted a very interesting article responding to this video wherein Walid Shoebat alleges that Codex Vaticanus (B) identifies the mark of the beast not as “666” (or 616 as some earlier manuscripts have) but instead an Arabic insertion “in the name of Allah” along with a symbol of crossed swords. I will not repeat Dan’s refutation here, but

Islamic Apologetics and New Testament Transmission (#23)
James White, , Islam
I continue a series that had reached twenty one installments back in April, received one more installment a few weeks ago thanks to a guest blogger, Alan Kurschner, but still requires that I complete the work, specifically, that of responding to the article posted at the Islamic Awareness website by MSM Saifullah and Hesham Azmy, “Is the Bible In Our

James White, , Islam
I was sent a link to John Piper’s video response to the controversy over “A Common Word.” I am providing it here. I would go beyond Dr. Piper and say that I am not simply profoundly disappointed in the “Christian” response: I found the reply, titled “Loving God and Neighbor Together,” a sad example of Christian dhimmitude. Dhimmitude is the

Numerous Topics Eventually Leading to a Return to the Brownson/Homosexuality Discussion
James White, , Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line
Wandered about a good bit on a number of topics, including interacting directly with a Muslim on Twitter who simply cannot (or will not) understand the necessity of consistency and avoiding double standards in debate at the start of the program today. Though I didn’t get to the Ehrman/Bass debate, I still ended up taking nearly 15 minutes talking about

A Few Ministry Resource List Additions, Chasing a “Lead”
James White, , Islam
You know how you get into studying a subject, run across a gem in a footnote, a bibliographical entry, etc., and end up finding something really valuable? Well, I sort of feel like that right now, as I ran across some “leads” in my on-going study of the wide, wide topic of Islam, and not wishing to miss out on

Andy Stanley Separates Incarnation and Redemption; Paul Falsely Accused; Tim Staples Reviewed
James White, , Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters
Started off considering Andy Stanley’s claim that Christianity does not stand on how Jesus came into the world, only on the resurrection. Then we looked at Paul’s statements in 1 Thessalonians 4 and 1 Corinthians 9 as a backdrop to considering common accusations against Paul made by Islamic apologists. Then in the second hour we spent a good deal of

Now This is Interesting…
James White, , Islam
I wrote a review of Daniel C. Peterson’s book on Muhammad for the CRI Journal recently, so I found this little announcement quite interesting. This is one debate I am looking forward to listening to! Details here.
