Apologetics Index: a Variety of Perspectives
Table of contents
Research resources from a variety of perspectives
While the publishers of Apologetics Index operate from an orthodox, evangelical Christian point of view, the intent of this site is to provide quality research resources from a variety of perspectives.
Therefore, unlike many other websites that deal with the issues we address, many topics on this site include links to:
- Christian
- non-Christian, and/or
- secular
research resources, presented from:
- neutral
- pro, and/or
- contra
viewpoints.
In other words, while we’ll usually give you our informed opinion, we also encourage you to do your own research.
We don’t just throw a lot of links at you. Instead we try to find the best, most helpful resources on each topic.
You’re also welcome to suggest additional research listings.
Apologetic Index: Color Key (Color coded resources)
A simple color-coding system is used to help you identify the general background of sites, articles and other listings.
These color keys are meant as handy visual aids – not full-blown theological commentaries.
For example, they are helpful to quickly find a site that addresses Scientology from a Christian perspective, or one that deals with Wicca from a non-Christian viewpoint.
They are not meant to convey, say, the degree of orthodoxy or heresy of the information linked to.
■ Christian/Christianity (in a wide sense of the term. We and/or you may not necessarily agree with everything preached or practiced)
