The God Delusion is 20 Years Old: Dr. Craig Responds to Richard Dawkins
Twenty years after The God Delusion fueled the rise of the New Atheism, Dr. Craig argues that Richard Dawkins’ central case against God doesn’t follow from its own premises. Must a cosmic designer be more complex than the universe? Is God just a “sky daddy”? What does Douglas Adams’ puddle have to do with fine-tuning? Plus, the surprising stories of people who came to faith through Dawkins’ book.

All the Arguments Have Been Answered (QoW #1016)
A listener is troubled by the impression that atheists and materialists have already answered every argument for Christianity, and wonders how belief in God is still possible. Dr. Craig responds by drawing a simple but important distinction, and reflects on why so many people feel overwhelmed by the volume of skeptical material online.

Listener Questions: Hell, the Atonement, and Digital Immortality
Dr. Craig answers more listener questions from around the world. If Christ paid for the sins of the lost, is hell a double punishment? Was Jesus really separated from the Father on the cross? Is God’s justice only retributive? Could downloading our consciousness offer a kind of digital immortality?

Preferability of a World without Suffering (QoW #1015)
A listener asks Dr. Craig to imagine a possible world filled with free persons, love, moral agency, and a genuine relationship with God, but with none of the cancer, war, animal suffering, or death we see in our own. If a world like that is logically possible, what greater good could justify God choosing a world like ours instead? Dr. Craig takes up this possible-worlds objection and considers whether it really undercuts his view that God permits suffering for the sake of bringing people freely to know Him.

Listener Questions: Atonement, Deism, and a Skeptic’s Take on Easter
Dr. Craig answers listener questions from around the world. If Christ paid for every sin, why would anyone still face judgment? Could God have made the universe and simply moved on? What should we make of a skeptical historian who says the disciples must have seen something? Plus: when science and Scripture seem to collide, which gives way? Why did God allow Mark’s snake-handling passage into our Bibles? And will the wicked exist forever?

Christianity on the Back Foot? (QoW #1014)
A listener writes that his faith is hanging in the balance. Wherever he looks, from natural theology to the resurrection, he thinks the scholarly consensus seems to be against Christianity, and online critics accuse Christian thinkers, Dr. Craig included, of intellectual dishonesty. Questions about James Tour and the origin of life have only deepened his doubts. Is Christianity a respected position in the academy? Would a naturalistic account of abiogenesis threaten the faith? And how can we tell legitimate theological development from ad hoc accommodation to science? Dr. Craig responds.

Is William Lane Craig’s Molinism Incoherent? A Reply to Ryan Mullins
Philosophical theologian Ryan Mullins argues that William Lane Craig’s version of Molinism is incoherent, and the charge comes down to one word: deliberation. If God already knows everything, can he really deliberate about which world to create? And if he can’t, is his choice truly free? Dr. Craig responds to Mullins’s critique, evaluates defenses offered by Tim Stratton and Reasonable Faith's own Tyson James, and explains why Mullins’s proposed fix would come at a steep theological price. Plus, a decades-old atheist argument from Dan Barker turns out to be the same puzzle in different clothes.

What Does It Mean to Say that Some Worlds Are Infeasible for God? (QoW #1013)
If nothing is impossible for God, how can some worlds be “infeasible” for Him? A listener named Howard presses Dr. Craig on a phrase that sounds like a limit on God’s power. Dr. Craig explains the Molinist idea behind it: true counterfactuals about how free creatures would choose narrow the range of worlds God can actually bring about. He then argues why this places no restriction on divine omnipotence.
