CounterPoint

This area is provided as a service to qualified individuals who subscribe to the AR-talk mailing list. AR-talk is not meant as a forum for debate, but rather as a place to share information about apologetics resources. A companion list, AR-vent, is meant for extended discussions. As neither list allows for the inclusion of attachments or the posting of full-length articles, I am offering this space for the publication of such items.

  • The views expressed within the "CounterPoint" pages are not necessarily those of Apologetics Index or its publisher.
  • The views expressed within the pages of Apologetics Index are not necessarily those of the people whose articles are included here.
