Please create a data set of apologetics topics, that is, the kinds of topics generally covered in apologetics handbooks, dictionaries, and encyclopedias. Include Bible passages for each topic, as appropriate, making it easy to get into Scripture and evaluate the debated texts for and against a given viewpoint. Index apologetics (and other relevant) resources with these topics, so we can dig into the literature and see what others say about them.

All of these topics could be explored in an Apologetics Guide and in the Factbook.

    Insufficient information to have an informed decision.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    This would need to be handled incredibly carefully, especially with regard to non-Protestant views and materials. I would need to know more about the methodology of content curation before I could decide whether to support this idea. (I remember the Lexham Survey of Theology--not fondly--on non-Protestant views.)

    This should be a must. However, given some of the other comments, I agree that it should be handled carefully; or, approached in sequential steps, starting with omnidenominational apologetics, followed by multi-denominational, followed by single-denominational.

    Generally agree with apologetic themed verse collections.
