  Episode 132 - How to Kill God the easy WayIn this episode of Still Unbelievable!, Matthew chats with Alan Bondar about his provocatively titled book, How to Kill God the Easy Way. We enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone who is seeking to engage with a critical review of Christian apologetics. If you have any sympathies for Christianity and it's proponents, then this book will challenge those thoughts. If you have doubts about Christianity, then this book will help you to focus your thoughts and put words to those doubts.We hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we did recording it.1) Contact Alan:https://howtokillgod.com/[email protected]/2) Buy the Book - How to Kill God the Easy Wayhttps://a.co/d/6BC6C243) Other books by Alanhttps://a.co/d/3vNyo3shttps://a.co/d/cppZcPQ4) Apostate: Stories of Deconversionhttps://youtu.be/_hKSjwfnfms?si=yK6mbvfHUqWJVTMn5) Alan on Jen Fishbourne's YouTube channelpart 1: https://youtu.be/Pq3zh5Od55I?si=5JombE2Iofgsv9rIpart 2: https://youtu.be/PyYUQk9vLKU?si=73HfowMH_QZSVGMoTo contact us, email: [email protected] YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@reasonpress2901Our Theme Music was written for us by Holly, to support her and to purchase her music use the links below:https://hollykirstensongs.com/https://hollykirsten.bandcamp.com/
