“Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” Genesis 6:5 (NASB).
My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is The Hamilton Minute.
Historian Tom Holland has written a new book in which he presents a robust historical defense of Christianity.
The interesting thing is that Holland is an atheist.
In his studies of the ancient world, Holland writes, he realized something. Ancient civilizations were utterly cruel.
He argued Christianity revolutionized the world. Arguments based on love, compassion, and justice borrow fundamentally from the Christian worldview.
Holland and other atheists shortsightedly ignored human depravity. Now, being confronted with evidence of a post-Christian world, they’re recognizing their error.
