Response to Robert Morey's "Tough Love' Lecture
Dr. Robert Morey directed me to his lecture “Tough Love.” The general theme of the lecture is that appeasement is not an effective solution to terrorism. As far as it goes, I certainly agree with that general theme. Moreover, there are certainly some true statements in the lecture, such as that the position of Christians…

Response to Zakir Hussain regarding Song of Solomon's
The fourth and final prophecy that Zakir Hussain used in his recent debate with Dr. White is the fact (in the linked mp3, see 24:40 – 30:40) that there is a description of a beloved one in Song of Solomon.

Dr. Ergun Caner's Thoughts on Dearborn, Michigan
Dr. Ergun Caner (who is apparently not going to continue as dean at Liberty) is apparently not talking to the media much these days, so he has not (to my knowledge) commented on the recent arrest of Christian evangelists in Dearborn, Michigan. However, in response to an article from July of last year, Dr. Caner…
