I've got 50 bucks, you got recommendations?

**Kelp** · February 20th 2011, 10:46 PM

Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday. ^__^

Here are my feeble Christianity and Apologetics libraries.

Your "must haves" that I'm missing?

Note: Most of the old classics and the ECFs can be had for much cheaper on my amazon kindle (or via CCEL) so I'm slowly accumulating them that way.

Or, for those of you who would rather recommend history or philosophy books. These are quite welcome as well. ^__^

I'll just get my paypal details for you and you can send it right over.

Ooooor, how many doughnuts can you buy a donkey for 50 nikker nowerdays?

**Kelp** · February 20th 2011, 10:49 PM

Ok, but first I want the entire Brooklyn Bridge, none of that "installment" crap you tried to pull before

.

**Manwë Súlimo** · February 20th 2011, 10:53 PM

Of the books I can personally vouch for:

1) "Reasonable Faith" and/or "On Guard" by William Lane Craig
2) "Shattering the Christ Myth" by JP Holding
3) "Honor, Patronage, Kinship, and Ritual Purity: Unlocking the New Testament Culture" by David A. DeSilva
4) "The New Testament World: Insights from Cultural Anthropology" by Bruce Malina

EDIT: If you go with anything I recommend, I would prioritize 3 and 4 over the first two because before you can build a house, you need a good foundation.

Kelp,be very careful of Speedies advice, as fifty bucks to him (being an English donkey )might just mean 50 times he could buck you off his back!!!!!!!

Good luck with the spending though!!!! And happy Birthday that was

**Kelp** · February 20th 2011, 10:59 PM

Thanks :). I own the first two. My only issue with the Context Group is I don't know mainstream they are within broader social science. I feel like I need more basic background in the disciple, though I haven't even been able to take Sociology 101 yet.

I think you should delve into your deeper nature with this book;

You will then have some left over for some of this;

How bout instead, you read some Henry Morris and rejoice in not being part of the cursed black slave race?

See, trolling can work both ways.

Now say something constructive or get out of my thread.

Thanks man, but I do not have any more suggestions for your purchase, but whatever you do get, make sure you enjoy it.

Thanks for being cool.

That actually does look interesting. I always wanted to go at least partially off the grid.
