The Absurdity of Unbelief (Jeffrey D. Johnson)

The Absurdity of Unbelief

A Worldview Apologetic of the Christian Faith

Because all non-Christian worldviews are indefensible, it is not sufficient for skeptics to attack Christianity without also defending the foundation for their own unbelief. Everyone has a worldview, even atheists and skeptics, but only the Christian worldview is not self-contradictory.  The Absurdity of Unbelief demonstrates why every possible reason for unbelief is irrational and ultimately meaningless by exposing the various self-refuting systems of thought in which these objections are rooted.

Endorsements

“Agnostics and atheists have been making a lot of noise in recent years, in spite of the fact that their belief systems are so obviously flawed. To counter their propaganda we need a flow of books exposing just how flimsy their arguments are. Jeffrey Johnson has chosen the word ‘absurdity’ to characterize these, and he has chosen well. Chapter by chapter he strips unbelief of any vestige of credibility, then shows with crystal clarity why the biblical case for God stands supreme when contrasted with all other philosophical and religious belief systems. I predict that this book will be as great a help to many of its readers as it has been to me, and I commend it warmly.”

— John Blanchard, author of Does God Believe in Atheists?

“As Christians struggle to hold onto a semblance of sanity in the midst of the collapse of Western morality and thought, a sound foundation upon which to stand in explaining our unwillingness to bow the knee to Caesar is a must. In The Absurdity of Unbelief, Jeffrey Johnson provides a clear and compelling case for the Christian faith. It is readable and usable for believer and unbeliever alike.”

— James R. White, apologist with Alpha & Omega Ministries and elder at Phoenix Reformed Baptist Church

“I plan on coming back to this book again and again.” —Joseph E. Torres

“The Absurdity of Unbelief will challenge the unbeliever’s skepticism and will confirm the believer’s faith. I highly recommend it.” — Robert R. Gonzales Jr.
