Ex-Christadelphians

A Christmas poem from our archives

By Mancott

It was Sunday in a small town Ecclesia, it had fallen on a bright Christmas Day
The President said "Now please bow your heads we are just now a-goin` to pray"

The good news is "Glory to God in the highest

and on earth peace, good will toward men"

- The bad news is that by Christmas 2016
that still won't have happened

I was going to join the Christadelphians

until I realised that they were

dying faster than us

From a fourteen year old Christadelphian young person who deconverted

Paul Davis

AS ADVERTISED BY CHRISTADELPHIAN JONATHAN BOWEN AT THE 2016 SWANWICK FAMILY BIBLE SCHOOL!

Editors' Note: This is an article from our archives dating back to 2013. To protect Paul from trouble from the Christadelphians we have disguised all details about him including his picture. This amazing young person was only fourteen when he wrote this! He is an example of courage, intelligence and critical thinking skills to other Christadelphian young people. Our thanks to Christadelphian Jonathan Bowen for featuring this article in a talk at Swanwick Family Bible School.

Christ has returned!

"I've been thinking a bit more about miracles recently and wondering what would persuade someone to change their mind on the question of miracles happening (either from a believer to a skeptic or the other way around).

I was interested to discover a possible miracle that happened just under 100 years ago with apparently good evidence in support of it. The miracle is known as ‘The miracle of the Sun’, and happened in Portugal in 1917. The reason it particularly interested me is because I think it contains a number of the elements that people use in support of Jesus resurrection."

The death of Almon McCann

Almon (Corky) McCann
1947 - 2016

It is with much sorrow that we report the recent death of Almon (Corky) McCann on 5th February 2016 following a long battle with cancer. He was 68 years of age. Almon was the founder of this website in 2008 and also the founder of the Facebook Ex-Christadelphians group, which now numbers approximately two hundred members.

Evolution in decades

University of Oregon biologist Bill Cresko discusses his lab's discovery that threespine stickleback, a small fish native to seawater, were able to quickly evolve, both genetically and phenotypically (external traits), to survive their being isolated in small freshwater ponds following the 1964 Alaskan earthquake. Cresko's team suggests other organisms may have this ability to survive sudden environmental change.

Thoughts from a doubting Christadelphian

Dare to doubt

By "Doubter"

John: I thought you might want to publish this. If not, it was still useful writing down the thoughts that have been running through my head for a long time. Yours, "Doubter"

Why I Doubted

This blog seems aimed at intellectuals. It presents a balanced diet of intellectual reasons for unbelief, counters to intellectual reasons for belief, and good, old-fashioned ridicule. That was how I interacted with it.

When Corky was running it, I used to occasionally stop by and correct bias and misreadings of scripture. John Bedson was the same: one hole, one wrong assumption, and I could dismiss the entire argument without touching my faith. I could have argued the apologetics all day without needing to change my mind.

So what changed?
