About the Author

I grew up in a ministry family, received Christ as Lord and Savior at the age of 7, and felt called into evangelistic ministry at age 16. I attended Christian schools and a Bible college and spent several years in web ministry. My primary mission in life was to win as many people to Christ in my lifetime as possible. In 2006, after having operated a few other online ministries (the original Gospel.com, Evangelism.com, and MyFaith.com), I started EvangelismForum.com for evangelistic Christians, but also opened the forum to atheists. This led me into a number of debates with atheists, where I defended my faith using typical evangelical defenses. After a while, I realized my arguments didn't hold water (especially when it came to science), and I began researching to see if I could defend Christianity with absolute intellectual honesty. After spending a great deal of time researching and conversing online, scouring Christian apologetics books, and even contacting several top Christian apologetics authors, it finally occurred to me that Christianity is not only indefensible; it is self-contradictory and easily disprovable. It was 2009 before I finally gave up altogether on Christianity and knew my faith was gone for good. The grieving process was much like the death of a loved one. And the anger I experienced, knowing I had been deceived for over 25 years, was transformed into a desire to expose the lies of Christianity and all 'known religions,' since none of them even come close to aligning with objective reality. Two sites I created as I was struggling through the issues are CreationCrisis.com and OriginScience.com which I left unchanged, and now I share my views online at AtheistInfo.com.

UPDATE 2/22/11: After my first phone debate on Feb. 19, 2011, which is available for mp3 download on this site, I decided to take the moniker, 'The Crazy Atheist', so anyone listening to or participating in a debate with me wouldn't be surprised when I become stark raving mad arguing against the lies of Christianity.
