Confronting Christianity is not a book designed for those who are curious or struggling with the truth of Christianity. That's a question that my generation and those before me asked. This is a book for those questioning whether Christianity is morally good. Today's generation has been fed a diet of criticism which has created a worldview that sees Christianity as racist, sexist, bigoted, narrow-minded, and evil. Rebecca McLaughlin pushes back against those ideas.

Those aren't the questions I have about Christianity, so the book isn't for me, exactly. Still, it's good to understand that these are the current problems that people today have with Christianity. (And by "people" I mean English-speaking Western people, because this is a book written in English for a Western audience.)

The questions she tackles are:

1. Aren't we better off without religion?
2. Doesn't Christianity crush diversity?
3. How can you say there is only one true faith?
4. Doesn't religion hinder morality?
5. Doesn't religion cause violence?
6. How can you take the Bible literally?
7. Hasn't science disproved Christianity?
8. Doesn't Christianity denigrate women?
9. Isn't Christianity homophobic?
10. Doesn't the Bible condone slavery?
11. How could a loving God allow so much suffering?
12. How could a loving God send people to hell?
