I disagree. I used to cite them back when I was a Christian, esp Stobel. You find looking further into them that they didn&#x27;t really become Christians by investigating evidence, esp alternatives in religion. It was always a faith-based thing. Strobel, one I pulled myself outside the echo chamber, was especially one-sided and fraudulent as shown below. Author even encourages you to whip out Case for Christ and follow along with him.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bidstrup.com&#x2F;apologetics.htm" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bidstrup.com&#x2F;apologetics.htm</a><p>You have the logical arguments that most ex-Christians come up with on their own. Also, recall Genesis says we have ability of &quot;gods&quot; to know right from wrong. So, we know the shit is wrong. Especially all the rape and slavery linked to on the right. ;)<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.evilbible.com&#x2F;evil-bible-home-page&#x2F;god-is-impossible&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.evilbible.com&#x2F;evil-bible-home-page&#x2F;god-is-impossi...</a><p>Then there was the contradictions we kept noticing. Some of these are justifiable but others (esp integer section) clearly show unreliability.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=RB3g6mXLEKk" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=RB3g6mXLEKk</a><p>So, it&#x27;s not as if we don&#x27;t read the Bible. The number of ex-Christians that spent years dedicated to it, reading it daily, studying its history, doing apologetics, and so on counters that easily. It&#x27;s that the book itself &amp; evidence behind it doesn&#x27;t add up to reason. So, once faith leaves, reason takes over and we leave it for rational things. That simple.<p>Note: I&#x27;m not going to continue a Bible debate from here. Believe what you want to. It&#x27;s not the point. I&#x27;m merely countering this myth that anyone that rejects it didn&#x27;t read it, try it, commit with their heart, whatever. That&#x27;s straight-up lies perpetuated by a subset of Christians. It&#x27;s actually a combo of logical and emotional reasons plus issues with Bible itself. That leads to opposition to it.
