Opis

"Why does God allow suffering? Religion just causes wars. Christianity is intolerant and homophobic. The God of the Old Testament is a wrathful monster. You don't need Jesus, love will save the world. Christians are brainwashed sheep, but I'm a free-thinker. All religions are the same. If God created the universe, who created God?" The 21st Century is a time of unique and seismic change. We are becoming a global community, increasingly well connected by the internet, media and ease of travel. And within this brave new world, Christian beliefs are under attack. Often branded as "intolerant," "bigoted" or "hateful," or just downright illogical, Christians are under pressure to abandon or adapt the core doctrines of the faith and to conform to culture. In "Answers," we explore some of the most common objections to Christianity in our time, examine the big issues, explain exactly what is happening in our culture and why, and take a look at where our generation's thinking is taking us. Using real-life stories, literature, history, philosophy and reasoning, we defend the Christian position, while inviting the reader to think about the biggest questions of our age.
