You cannot be a believer in the God of Abraham if you accept evolution

Bible Contradictions #21: Should Christians preach to atheists?

Bible Absurdities: The biblical demonic pandemic
Call me a skeptic, but I don’t believe in demonic possession. There is absolutely zero empirical evidence of any kind to support the hypothesis that demons exist and sometimes set up shop in your lower intestines. Yet we see time … Continue reading
