RPL Responds to Atheists in Hollywood and Online

Published on September 28, 2025 By sirrahc

Several weeks ago, I shared a couple episodes of “Red Pen Logic” (RPL) by Christian apologist Tim Barnett, aka “Mr. B”.

Published on October 8, 2023 By sirrahc

As my regular readers know, I am a conservative Christian with an interest in Christian apologetics.

An Introduction to Atheist Delusions (Part 2 of 2)

Published on November 2, 2014 By sirrahc
