  4. Number 4: Are Latter-day Saints Christians?

    Since the Jewish synagogue shootings and LDS chapel shootings, there has been a significant increase in internet chatter by anti-Mormons claiming The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is not a Christian denomination, and its members are not Christians. In this episode, host Martin Tanner uses logic, fairness, definitions, and facts to show that Latter-day Saints are Christians.

  5. Number 5: How We Know Prayer Works - Followup Episode

    Martin Tanner says we know prayer works from descriptions in thousands of near-death experiences where prayers are seen as "shafts of light" or a "beam of light" going up to God in Heaven, and God's answers to prayers are seen as shafts of light or a beam of light coming down from Heaven to the person praying. We know prayer works from hospital studies showing that patients for whom prayers are offered recover much quicker. How prayers are formulated makes a difference. Asking God to influence or help someone works better than asking God to take away someone's free agency.
