Should I title this page "Cool Links" or "Just Links"?
"Cool" would probably attract more attention. Plus I do think they're cool recommendations. By the way, check out the note at the bottom of this page regarding trusting any sources; that's a good thing to always keep in your mind.
Yup, I'm a knowledge nerd. I never would have guessed in a million years that I'd end up here: taking in all this data and thinking critically about it. Anyway, I seriously hope you come to enjoy investigating this stuff (without prejudices or misunderstandings) too! Right click links+open in new tab.

Another Perfect Introduction
Don't pass this up either. It is another perfect introductory sermon to the whole subject of Jesus – on what "Christianity" really is. It's more general than link #1 in that it goes with the topic of usurping rather than laying out the whole rap sheet of broken laws:

***
I wrote that because of some articles from "Apostasy Watch" and some of Chris' sermon reviews on the "Fighting for the Faith" show. They mention huge mistakes of even a few good Gospel teachers.
Different subject: Also, don't just read and hear from ONE side of any issue. Don't build a bias, but DO "plant your feet." Simply shuffle around as you gain more information that persuades you.
