Frequently asked questions

Why are the articles numbered lists?

Because an argument has parts, and a list makes the parts visible. A reader can see what is being claimed, jump to the entry that concerns them, and judge each answer on its own.

Do you quote critics accurately?

That is the rule the site is built on. Every objection is stated in the terms its defenders use before it is answered. If you find one misrepresented, write in and it will be corrected.

Which translation of the Quran do you use?

Verses are given in the author's own rendering, checked against the standard translations, and cited by chapter and verse so you can compare.

Can I republish an article?

Quotation with attribution and a link is welcome. Republishing a whole piece is not, unless agreed in advance. Use the contact page.

How do I suggest a topic?

Through the contact page. Objections you have met and not seen answered are the most useful suggestions.

Are comments open?

Yes, and moderated. Argument is welcome. Abuse is deleted.
