Objections that Christians may have heard
These pages contain an introduction to common objections, followed by a brief presentation of each one, and then a Bible-based answer to it. The objections dealt with are listed under each link. The objections are given names for ease of reference, and these names follow the style of Professor Anthony Flew's "Thinking about Thinking", where he gives names to unreasonable arguments.
