When Protestants Argue Like Atheists

When Protestants Argue Like Atheists by Trent Horn, published by Catholic Answers Press on March 20, 2023, is a 192-page examination of the discourse surrounding anti-Catholic arguments. In this book, Horn analyzes twelve areas where anti-Catholic scholars adopt methods typically associated with atheistic critiques, highlighting inconsistencies in their approaches to defending Christianity. He draws on the works of both historical and contemporary Protestant figures to illustrate how these scholars often shift the burden of proof or rely on questionable historical claims when challenging Catholicism.
Readers will find a thorough exploration of the logical weaknesses in these arguments, as well as insights into how Catholics may inadvertently mirror some of the less rigorous tactics employed by skeptics. Horn aims to elevate the conversation around Christian truth and salvation, providing tools for refuting misleading arguments. This edition, written in English, encourages a more thoughtful and respectful dialogue on critical issues within Christian theology and apologetics.
Official synopsis Publisher
In When Protestants Argue Like Atheists, Catholic apologist Trent Horn looks at twelve areas where anti-Catholic scholars and polemicists mimic the methods they otherwise decry in anti-theists. Citing the work of both classic and contemporary Protestant figures, he shows how, when defending mere Christianity, they quickly object when skeptics shift the burden of proof, or appeal to fake history, or harp on the morality of the messenger instead of the truth of the message. And yet, when trying to take down Catholicism, they seem to have no problem employing these same shady tactics and others. Not only does Trent unveil the hypocrisy and logical weaknesses of such tactics and show you how to refute them–he points out ways that Catholics, too, sometimes imitate the worst arguments of atheists. The result is a much-needed elevation of discourse, for all sides, on these all-important subjects related to Christian truth and our salvation.
