To posit God simply based on a lack of explanation is known as the “God of the gaps” fallacy. A proper example would indeed be believing that gods cause lightning due to a lack of other explanations. I agree this is not proper reasoning.
However, this is not at all what thinking Christians do when they hold the view that God…

As I shared in You Are Not Alone, since my recovery from being a churchboy began, I have encountered countless others that are walking a similar path. I’ve since learned this path has been given the term “deconstructing.” I heard it said just a couple of days…
Peace is so incredibly elusive.
We have all heard the expression “Hate the sin, but love the sinner”. For many religious people that want to help it is a way to focus on the problem instead of attacking the person. But this concept relies on an assumption. That the other person is actually sinning and that change is actually…

Now that is a great observation, Joe. This simile cuts to the heart of that old Protestant standby, “Are you saved, brother?” That one altar call or Jesus prayer or what have you is not a clear line in the sand. It didn’t appear of nowhere, your whole life led you to it, and you’re not free and clear just because you stepped over it. There’s plenty…

There are examples of religious mass murder all over the place. Specifically Christian but not limited, every religion in the world is guilty of it at some point in history.

Exodus 12: 17–21
Former President Abraham Lincoln’s faith or lack thereof has long been a topic of debate, but now the surfacing of a Bible he once owned is shedding new light on his religious beliefs.
“The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are an abomination unto the LORD thy God.”
Thanks Donald. I don’t mind the stone-casting one bit. In fact, I really agree and resonate with just about everything you’ve said.
Admittedly — and obviously, to folks like yourself — I was not adhering to a strictly academic or philosophical perspective on the topic. It was more felt-out, as I wrote it, rather than…
Great thoughts Marcia.
Our powerful God fights for us. Love the analogy of His power.
God has won and fights our spiritual battles daily when we let Him in.

Good morning!
Is man inherently good or evil?
