Questions about what to say to those who refuse to engage with a “script” and questions to ask someone who doesn’t care about spiritual things to get them to care about eternity now.
 

What do you say to those who refuse to engage with a “script”?

What questions or info can you give someone who doesn’t care about spiritual things to get them to care about eternity now?

Questions about whether God’s moral laws are merely subjective if he can command us to break them, and whether contrasting the Torah with barbaric Near Eastern laws to show moral improvement proves anything since you can’t justify bad laws by comparing them to worse ones.
 

Are God’s moral laws objective, or can they be broken if God commands us to break them? Aren’t his laws merely subjective if we can go against them when he sees fit?

In Is God a Moral Monster, Paul Copan often contrasts the Torah with barbaric Near Eastern laws to show moral improvement, but if I kill an adult and justify it because others kill children, aren’t I still a monster?

Questions about why God went ahead with creation if he knew about all the suffering that was going to happen, why Christians say God is responsible for all the good that happens but not the bad, and whether there’s a more satisfying answer to the problem of evil.
 

How should I respond to a Buddhist who asks why God went ahead with creation if he knew about all the suffering that was going to happen?

Why do Christians say everything good that happens is from God but he’s not responsible for the bad things? According to the Bible, didn’t God create all things?

Why is the problem of evil the biggest issue non-believers seem to have, and is there a more satisfying answer to be had?

Questions about whether quantum mechanics disproves an objective reality and indicates we can’t perceive true evidence that God exists, and whether an infinite, intelligent, loving designer would have designed logic to exclude the possibility of suffering.
 

I’ve been struggling with the idea that quantum mechanics disproves an objective reality. Does God exist, or is the evidence we perceive actually fake and we can’t make sense out of the physical world?

If logic was created by an infinite, intelligent designer, and that designer is a loving God, wouldn’t he have designed logic to exclude the possibility of suffering without interfering with his goals?

Questions about whether feeling uncomfortable when people see you pray means you’re ashamed, and advice for a single person who feels like church is pointless since it’s set up for couples and families.
 

I have no problem talking to people about Jesus and my faith, but I am very uncomfortable with people seeing me pray. Is that wrong, and does it mean I am ashamed?

Church seems pointless to me since it’s all set up for couples and families and I don’t have any of that. Do you have any advice for me?
