#145 Atheist Tries to Answer My 30 Questions—Here’s What He Gets Wrong


Listen Later

Six years ago, Joel Settecase published a provocative article titled “30 Questions to Ask Atheists, Agnostics & Skeptics.” Now, for the first time, someone has answered them—publicly. In this episode of The Think Institute Thursday, Joel reads and responds to a detailed blog post by atheist writer Dalbert from Daily Kos, who attempted to take on all 30 questions point-by-point.

Using a presuppositional apologetics approach, Joel doesn’t just refute Dalbert’s responses—he exposes the underlying assumptions and demonstrates how only the Christian worldview can account for reason, truth, and morality. This episode is a masterclass in how to lovingly and logically engage with unbelief.

What you’ll learn:

  • How atheists answer worldview challenges—and where their logic breaks down

  • Why morality, logic, and truth can’t exist without God

  • The key difference between presuppositional and evidential apologetics

  • How to use questions to lead unbelievers toward gospel truth
