Faith and Reason

Disturbing Christian Doctrines

By: Carmel Paul Attard

As a Christian you might have asked yourself questions like: How could a benevolent God, “our Father,” punish anyone in fire eternally? How could billions of non-members of my church all be going to hell? How can there be three “Gods” in one God? How can Jesus be both human and divine? Why is the “kingdom of God” in heaven, but we pray for it to “come on earth”? Why is the Bible infallible when it’s littered with textual contradictions? The talking serpent clearly relegates Adam and Eve’s story to the realm of tales. Since they never existed, how could they have committed original sin? So how could we inherit it? And what did Jesus need to redeem us from? It’s been almost two thousand years: will Jesus ever come back to earth? How can Jesus be inside the Eucharist? Faith and Reason shows why and how we’ve come to believe such oddities. “The truth will set you free!” John 8:32 (NIV)

Is the Bible Infallible?

A Rational, Scientific, and Historical Evaluation

By: Carmel Paul Attard

Christians believe the Bible is God’s revelation: infallibly inspired by the Holy Spirit. Is the Bible Infallible? evaluates evidence for a divine or human origin, such as: Irreconcilable textual contradictions and myth-based accounts, Biblical cosmology’s compatibility with modern science of the universe and solar system, Agreement of Earth’s shape and age with geological facts and radiometric dating, Creation accounts’ confirmation through fossil records and man’s appearance or evolution, Transpiration of prophecies, historical accuracy, and miraculous accounts. The book discusses: The Bible’s concepts of afterlife, heaven, hell, salvation, resurrection, and the soul, The meaning of “Gospel” and “Kingdom of God/Heaven”. It also debates whether: Jesus is really the “Christ”: the “Messiah” first promised to King David, The Messiah/Christ was supposed to suffer to redeem us from our sins, Jesus is God, the “Son of Man”, and the “Servant of the Lord”, God is both a loving father and a violent judge.

Is God a Reality?

A Scientific Investigation

By: Carmel Paul Attard

Why is there something rather than nothing? Was there a beginning to our universe, or was it always there? Everything around us winds down; was the universe wound up? Is there evidence of design in our universe, or was it the result of dumb luck? Are there other universes besides ours? Is life common in our universe? Did life on earth start spontaneously from inanimate matter? Is there evidence of intelligence in the living cell? Is there enough evidence for evolution? Did all life have a universal common ancestor? Does thinking emerge from brain complexity? Does the self exist, or is it just an illusion? Can science explain our consciousness? Can the soul or self be separated from the body? Is there any evidence for an afterlife? Is there any positive evidence for the existence of God, or is it all inferred? Is proposing the existence of a creator pseudoscience? Does survival of the fittest imply a malevolent creator? Why all this pain and suffering in life? Is there any meaning to life? Do heaven, hell, and purgatory exist; where are they? Is God a Reality? is a lifetime study of these questions by a scientist.
