Unbelievable?

<p>In the first of two programmes Justin Brierley talks to Jehovah's Witness Robert King (aka e-watchman) and former JW Tony Brown.</p> <p>Robert is disfellowshipped but still holds to Jehovah's Witness doctrine. He does not speak in any offical capacity for the Watchtower Society. Tony Brown is now a Christian pastor with a ministry to Jehovah's Witnesses, he describes how he joined and left the organisation.</p> <p>They discuss the failed end-time prophecies of the organisation, their controversial blood doctrines and the belief in the 144,000 in heaven. Next week they tackle why JWs reject the deity of Christ.</p> <p>For Tony Brown's minstry to JWs see <a href='http://www.upfc.org.uk/'>http://www.upfc.org.uk/</a></p> <p>For Robert King's website <a href='http://e-watchman.com/'>http://e-watchman.com/</a></p> <p>Unbelievable?

<p>Mike Lee aka "The Religious Antagonist" is a US atheist who makes YouTube videos mocking Christianity. His videos are popular but his approach earns him both praise and criticism from fellow atheists.</p> <p>David Robertson is Pastor of St Peter's Free Church, Dundee and director of the Solas Centre for Public Christianity. He often interacts with atheists online and has earned himself the title "the wee flea" for his provocative interactions on the Dawkins website.</p> <p>David and Mike debate whether Mike's approach is a helpful one. David accuses Mike of emotional atheism and an incoherent view of Christianity. Mike says mocking Christianity is the best way of policing its power in the US.</p> <p>For The Religious Antagonist <a href='http://www.youtube.com/user/religiousantagonist'>http://www.youtube.com/user/religiousantagonist</a></p> <p>For David Robertson <a href='http://www.solas-cpc.org/'>http://www.solas-cpc.org/</a></p> <p>For more Christian/non-Christian debate visit <a href='http://www.premier.org.uk/unbelievable'>http://www.premier.org.uk/unbelievable</a> or get the MP3 podcast <a href='http://ondemand.premier.org.uk/unbelievable/AudioFeed.aspx'>http://ondemand.premier.org.uk/unbelievable/AudioFeed.aspx</a> or <a href='http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=267142101'>Via Itunes </a></p> <p>You may also enjoy:</p> <p><a href='http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid=%7B6d3b45c5-d7dc-4b57-b8aa-d3588fc03c16%7D'>Unbelievable? 12 Sep 2009 - Richard Morgan - from Atheism to Faith</a> - Christians Richard Morgan, David Robertson and Atheist Ed Turner</p> <p><a href='http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid=%7Bb4983abc-b0ea-4d46-9c80-e078afd2d158%7D'>Unbelievable? 21 Mar 2009 "Challenging Atheist Myths" Part1</a> Christian David Robertson & Atheist Adrian Hayter</p> <p>Join the conversation at <a href='http://www.premiercommunity.org.uk/group/unbelievable'>http://www.premiercommunity.org.uk/group/unbelievable</a> and via <a href='http://www.facebook.com/unbelievablejb'>Facebook </a>and <a href='http://www.twitter.com/unbelievablejb'>Twitter</a></p>

<p>On the show this week:</p> <p>April is CS Lewis month on Premier Christian Radio. In this edition of the show we examine two of CS Lewis' apologetic arguments for Christianity.</p> <p>The Trilemma - "Either Jesus is a lunatic, a liar or Lord. He cannot simply be a great moral teacher, he has not left that option open to us". Does Lewis' argument still stand 60 years on?</p> <p>Kenneth R Samples is senior research scholar for Reasons To Believe and a lifelong fan of CS Lewis. He defends Lewis' apologetics against atheist James Croft who says that it fails to pass muster.</p> <p>They also discuss Lewis' "Argument for God from Reason" - that our belief in the trustworthiness of our reasoning faculties is only possible if God exists.</p> <p>To enter the draw for 3 CS Lewis books email <a href='mailto:[email protected]'>[email protected]</a></p> <p>For Kenneth Samples <a href='http://www.reasons.org/about/who-we-are/kenneth-samples'>http://www.reasons.org/about/who-we-are/kenneth-samples</a></p> <p>For James Croft <a href='http://www.templeofthefuture.net/about'>http://www.templeofthefuture.net/about</a></p> <p>For more Christian/non-Christian debate visit <a href='http://www.premier.org.uk/unbelievable'>http://www.premier.org.uk/unbelievable</a> or get the MP3 podcast <a href='http://ondemand.premier.org.uk/unbelievable/AudioFeed.aspx'>http://ondemand.premier.org.uk/unbelievable/AudioFeed.aspx</a> or <a href='http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=267142101'>Via Itunes </a></p> <p>You may also enjoy:</p> <p><a href='http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid=%7B621C1341-E75A-46D5-A605-3BF1858B8BF2%7D'>Unbelievable? 18 February 2012 - Is apologetics a waste of time? </a></p> <p><a href='http://www.premierradio.org.uk/listen/ondemand.aspx?mediaid=%7B0162687E-3473-499F-9B50-7A0D063929AF%7D'>Unbelievable? 30 Oct 2010 - The Apologetics of CS Lewis </a>Michael Ward debates with Dan Barker.</p> <p>Join the conversation at <a href='http://www.premiercommunity.org.uk/group/unbelievable'>http://www.premiercommunity.org.uk/group/unbelievable</a> and via <a href='http://www.facebook.com/unbelievablejb'>Facebook </a>and <a href='http://www.twitter.com/unbelievablejb'>Twitter</a></p>

<p>Atheism 2.0 is the logical next step for non-believers according to cultural philosopher Alain de Botton. He outlines why atheists should borrow from the art, architecture, community, and contemplative traditions of religion without the supernatural beliefs. </p> <p>The book "Religion for atheists" drew criticism from Richard Dawkins and others after De Botton apparently suggested that there should be "temples for atheism". De Botton responds and also gives his opinion on AC Grayling's "The Good Book" and Terry Eagleton's unfavourable review in The Guardian.</p> <p>Recorded in De Botton's home, he chats with James Orr, a Christian convert studying for a PhD in the History of Ideas at Cambridge University.

COMING SOON: Book into the UK Reasonable Faith Tour with William Lane Craig <a href='http://www.premier.org.uk.craig/'>http://www.premier.org.uk.craig</a> Geoff Crocker is a former Christian, now atheist. However, he says he still believes in Spirituality even as an atheist and that believing the universe is Godless does not mean there is no meaning to be grasped. His book "An Enlightened Philosophy" asks if atheism may be able to borrow from Religion "reintrepreted as myth". Peter S Williams is a Christian Philosopher and apologist. He says that Atheism does not allow for objective meaning, value or purpose, only theism can provide those.
