Herbie and Mus- here is my attempt: Just assume for a minute that there is some kind of immaterial being responsible for creating the universe. I know you don't believe it, but for the sake of our communication barriers... This being, spirit, whatever we can consider it, is a multi-faceted being ... Read More

I would like to know how many Christians out there do not have a church base. I ask because I have not regularly gone to a worship service for more than a few months at a time since realising I was a Christian. Actually I can honeslty say I have never felt "at home" in a church that I was able to ... Read More
In any given belief system, does there need to be one main idea that the rest of the belief system forms around? Or on the whole do the interlocking ideals require coexistence? Read More
This is a debate musycks and I have been having, I thought I'd make it known...I say yes, but many disagree... Some scripture to refer to:John 18:36. Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jews. But now my kingdom is from another ... Read More
Let me start by saying it is nearly impossible to paraphrase any point that C.S. Lewis (Jack, as he preferred to be called) makes about Christianity. This is not such a topic. The whole of his arguments are interwoven into the breaking down of language inconsistencies, and therefore he spends much ... Read More
I recently heard a sermon that was a bit of a slap in the face to Christianity... There was a quote given, attributed to E. Stanley Jones (a Christian writer who was a close friend of Mahatma Gandhi):"We have inoculated the world with a mild form of Christianity so that it is now proof against the ... Read More

There have been many things written on the "Justice" of what we would consider God's Final Judgment for humanity. This has been a topic of great derision towards the Christian God. How can we trust that the judgement of humanity will be just? Read More

I was sitting on the beach a while back discussing (as much as we could) the history of Christianity with a friend, and we came to the topic of early Christians that were persecuted for their beliefs. I started to wonder how we could compare the hardships they faced with the contemporary Christians ... Read More

I personally enjoy it immensely... but if someone found a way to create food in which everything contained was absorbed, no waste products were included, would you eat it? Would you give up pooping? Not I, I say... Read More
All this talk of "Jesus was a great teacher" or "Jesus wasn't the son of God but was a great humanitarian" i think falls apart when you read the only documented works of His teachings, the gospels. I think it is important to discuss the idea that either you have to accept that Jesus was who He said ... Read More
I feel that this is a great forum for a continuing Bible study for those who do not have the time or means of joining or forming a personal one, or who are not part of a church community but still searching... Please keep the comments relating to scripture, if you are going to come to try to debunk ... Read More
