ARE CHRISTIANS UNLOVING?

ARE CHRISTIANS UNLOVING?

Two years ago I wrote a rather critical and sarcastic post about the Church, at a time when I felt particularly unloved and unappreciated in the churches I had attended over the previous few years. My attitude was actually defensive: I felt offended and disappointed. I was so concerned with how I felt that it didn't occur … Continue reading ARE CHRISTIANS UNLOVING?

DO CHRISTIANS NEED REASON?

DO CHRISTIANS NEED REASON?

  I’ve spoken to Christians who think we shouldn’t be interested in having reasons for our faith. We shouldn’t use or even consider logic or knowledge or argument or evidence to support our faith, because, they say, these things are the opposite of faith, in fact they quench it.

UNBELIEVERS CELEBRATE HOLY DAYS!

ROMANCE AND THE PAIN TO PLEASURE RATIO

ROMANCE AND THE PAIN TO PLEASURE RATIO

Alfred Lord Tennyson, in 1850, wrote: “‘Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all” (from “In Memoriam”).
