This Blog Evolves Again
I have decided to evolve the blog in a slightly new direction. I'm dropping the 'Unbelievers' tag, because one of our admins and many of our authors, commenters and readers are not Unbelievers. It seems unnecessary to let them to feel uncomfortable using a resource that does not accurately portray their thinking and beliefs.

The Pagan Origins of the Book of Genesis - Part 1: The Spirit of God
This
is the first of a series of articles showing how the authors of the Biblical book
of Genesis borrowed many of their key themes and stories from writings of pagan
priests and storytellers of the surrounding nations of the Ancient Near East
(ANE). The pagan cuneiform inscriptions containing these myths are up to two and a half thousand years older than the earliest possible date of the origin of Genesis.
How low will they go? - Christadelphian Office promoting Michael Ashton books!
I was shocked today when a correspondent alerted me to the fact that the Christadelphian Office (CMPA) are still proudly publishing a total of fourteen books and booklets authored by their disgraced former editor, Michael Ashton.In 2011 Brother Ashton was accused of allegedly stealing hundreds of thousands of pounds from Christadelphians during his decade as editor of the Christadelphian magazine. According to the CMPA he admitted these actions. He was disfellowshiped by his ecclesia for this behaviour, for "Conduct unbecoming of a Brother of Christ."
Heaven's Philippine Aid Controversy
 |
| The size of Heaven's aid offering to the Philippines has sparked mixed feelings from its citizens |
Heaven is sending $0,000,000.00
(£0,000,000.00) to the Philippines to help with the aid effort following Typhoon Haiyan.
Heaven had been criticised for its pledge - a fraction of that committed by other major nations.

Building blocks of life could be formed on comets

No one knows how life began on Earth. But for it to happen, some simple chemical building blocks would have been needed.
The Jake Douglas Article
 |
| Young Earth Creationism and Flood Geology explained to Jake Douglas by a Christadelphian relative |
We were forced to withdraw it following coercion on young Jake from his relatives, who did not want him expressing his own opinion on the religion.
Ex-Christadelphians@Hotmail.com
Another of our young Christadelphian authors found by the CDs
This is what happens, when they are found, to the courageous youngsters from Christadelphian families who dare to write for us to express their thinking about religion and the Bible.This is why we have been obliged to delete Jake Douglas's article.
This is how weak and insecure the Christadelphians really are.

However you have to look at things relatively and relative to the unbounded nonsense published by the Christadelphian office, the ALS, the Bible Mission, the Logos, Testimony magazine and other Christadelphianspublishers - Jonathan's book is superb. It is a milestone in Christadelphian publishing and one of the most significant books published in our community since the days of Dr Thomas.
Comment of the week from Cindy
To me, who was brought up a Christadelphian and was baptized one in my mid 20's but have since left, I feel that does it really matter if people do or do not believe God created the earth or started the evolutionary process (the later is which I swing towards) or not.

| Christadelphian thinking about latter day prophecy has been turned upside down |
Click here for details.
For one hundred and sixty five years Christadelphians have told the world that Russia is the "King of the North" and now it looks like Russian President Putin is going to be the "King of the South."
Comment of the Week - From Mancott
I was indoctrinated into CDism from the cradle. I believed in it as

my dad creeping into my bedroom with presents early on Christmas day.
