Most Christians believe that Jesus IS God, that Jesus is the same jealous and angry God that abhorred homosexuals and condemned them as "an abomination." He is the same deity that gave instructions on how to beat slaves and the same divine Creator that suggested the stoning of non-believers and disobedient children. You have to accept the good along with the bad... after all, he came not to abolish the Hebrew laws, but to fulfill them (Matthew 5:17).

Choosing Faith
For some, choosing to believe in the Christian God is as foreign a concept as choosing to believe in Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy. It just doesn’t seem possible to radically change your way of thinking right on the … Continue reading
Is God Supernatural?
If God is supernatural, wouldn’t scientific proof of God’s existence also prove that He doesn’t exist? Consider that anything which can be proven scientifically is automatically relegated to to the realm of natural phenomenon. Is a god which is not … Continue reading
Is It Necessary To Be a Panentheist If You Are a Theist?

A Higher Self
Belief in a higher self is essential for normal human beings. I believe that few true atheists (loosely defined) exist. Most people who think they are atheists merely have a problem with the definition of God. The label ‘God’ is loaded … Continue reading
Why this Existence Probably Resembles “Hell” Much More Than It Does Heaven.
