Mark Lilla
“I wanted to cast doubt on the step he was about to take, to help him see there are other ways to live, other ways to seek knowledge, love...even self-transformation. I wanted to convince him his dignity depended on maintaining a free, skeptical attitude towards doctrine. I wanted...to save him...
Doubt, like faith, has to be learned. It is a skill. But the curious thing about skepticism is that its adherents, ancient and modern, have so often been proselytizers. In reading them, I've often wanted to ask: "Why do you care?" Their skepticism offers no good answer to that question.”
Mark Lilla

William Lane Craig
“‎"If there is no God, then man and the universe are doomed. Like prisoners condemned to death, we await our unavoidable execution. There is no God, and there is no immortality. And what is the consequence of this? It means that life itself is absurd. It means that the life we have is without ultimate significance, value, or purpose.”
William Lane Craig, Reasonable Faith: Christian Truth and Apologetics

“Our hearts of stone become hearts of flesh when we learn where the outcast weeps.”
Brennan Manning, Abba's Child: The Cry of the Heart for Intimate Belonging

Peter Kreeft
“We can't avoid reasoning; we can only avoid doing it well.”
Peter Kreeft, Pocket Handbook of Christian Apologetics

Brennan Manning
“The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians: who acknowledge Jesus with their lips, walk out the door, and deny Him by their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable.”
Brennan Manning
