Are Atheists Smarter Than Christians?

August 1, 2014 by Zak Schmoll

Well, there has certainly been a lot of controversy over an undergraduate psychology assignment given at The Ohio State University. A student anonymously submitted the following question to the people at Campus Reform which was actually on his homework assignment. Theo has an IQ of 100 and Aine has an IQ of 125. Which of the following statements would you expect to be … [Read more...]

Culture and Biblical Literacy

July 1, 2014 by Zak Schmoll

Hollywood is beginning to realize that there are incredible financial benefits for making Christian movies. It isn’t rocket science. A large part of our population at least identifies as Christian, and you know that when you produce a Christian movie, churches and youth groups everywhere will be renting out movie theaters to bring everyone to the show. As a business, you have … [Read more...]

What Is Faith Really?

June 1, 2014 by Zak Schmoll

I have been interested in reading the reaction to the debate between Dr. Tim McGrew and Dr. Peter Boghossian. I listened to the debate, and one thing struck me as particularly odd. There was a lot of time spent from the side of Dr. Boghossian discussing what he believes the majority of Christians in the 21st century mean when they refer to faith. However, I don’t believe that … [Read more...]

The Problem with Nazareth

May 1, 2014 by Zak Schmoll

We just got over the hysteria of the release of Noah, and now it appears that there is a controversial television series on the way. According to this article from the Christian Post, FOX is preparing to release a series entitled Nazareth. I understand that some people thought that Noah was a great conversation starter while others were irritated by it, but I am sincerely … [Read more...]

Changing Our Culture through Culture

April 1, 2014 by Zak Schmoll

I have not seen the movie Noah yet, but it seems to be creating quite a ruckus among Christians. On one hand, you have people who feel that this movie is an opportunity. They feel that even though it might not be anything like the biblical story of Noah, we can use this as a way to talk about the Bible. People might not have ever been interested in the Bible before, and even … [Read more...]

Why Does God Allow Disabilities?

March 1, 2014 by Zak Schmoll

As we are striving towards a common goal of expressing the reason for the hope that we have, we can come in contact with the seemingly cold nature of reality. Sometimes, it seems like there are things wrong with the world that are extraordinarily hard to reconcile with the nature of God who loves all humanity. I have heard this said about living with a variety of disabilities. … [Read more...]

Answering Critics with Grace and Logic

February 1, 2014 by Zak Schmoll

I know that when I find certain pieces of content online, it is a lot more fun to skip the article and go right to the comments. Sure, the article may have valuable pieces of information, but the comments seem to be where people really get down to the heart of the issue. Ideally, journalists are objective. Ideally, they present the facts and let you form your own opinion based … [Read more...]

Did Gandalf Hate His Friends?

January 1, 2014 by Zak Schmoll

I don’t know if you were as excited as I was to see The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, but one thing that particularly stood out to me was the exploration of the mission that Gandalf undertook apart from his dwarf and hobbit companions. Even though it is outside of the story as J.R.R. Tolkien originally told it, I think that we were handed a very good image of what it means … [Read more...]

Apologetics through the Dystopian

December 1, 2013 by Zak Schmoll

I enjoy dystopian novels. However, it isn’t just a bizarre interest of mine. Right now, people are flocking to the movie theaters to see Catching Fire or swarming the bookstores to pick up Allegiant. In generations past, you could pick up Lord of the Flies or even Fahrenheit 451 to see a depiction of a world gone wrong. In the past, I have thought of these novels more as an … [Read more...]

Why Can't We All Be Right?

November 1, 2013 by Zak Schmoll

Most of you are probably familiar with CS Lewis and his famous dichotomy. “Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.” Of course, we all understand the implications of such a statement. If Christianity is false, then the way that it describes the universe is essentially invalid and … [Read more...]

Unity Statement

In essentials unity, in nonessentials liberty, in all things charity. The Christian Apologetics Alliance (CAA) is united in our Statement of Faith. The CAA does not, as an organization, have positions on many of the doctrinal or theological debates that take place within the church. Our primary concern is to promote the gracious, rational defense of the central claims of Christianity and the critique of opposing systems of thought. The CAA joyfully welcomes Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and diverse Protestant believers, and we are committed to treating all these traditions with respect in our community.
