    If Philosophy gave an a priori roadmap, to scientific discovery: would Science heed it?

    Hi there, So it has dawned on me, that maybe there is something that Philosophy has to offer "Science". Science defines a method of falsifiability (according to Karl Popper), whereby hypothesis are entertained, tested and verified. The point I would make, is that if you know what manner of...

    Is advertising the mark of the anti-Christ for televisions?

    Hi there, So this is basically an object lesson, that not everything tolerated by the spirit is wise, and not everything wise is a target. What do I mean by that? I mean take televisions, there is a pure signal, which gives you clear reception and there is no reason to think it will cease to...

    Some things require sacrifice: if God desires mercy, what about those of us that must die?

    Hi there, So yes, it is a blunt message to me, that there are certain things in life that "require" sacrifice. Revelation speaks with praise about those that "love not their lives, to the death" - but this clashes with the idea that Christ died for us, doesn't it? Didn't Jesus die, so that...

    A question about Christian practice

    I was thinking and wondering about centering or maybe balance. Is there such a thing as balance or finding one's center in Christianity? I know in some religions there are those things and I got to wonder if Christianity has something similar or if Christianity is different all together

    Could Evolution convince the centipede to dance? Or the caterpillar to do better than a butterfly?

    Hi there, So, what we have here is a simple observation that between cell and mammal, is insectum (insect). If there is a transition in a cell to a mammal, at some point it seems reasonable to expect that an insect will at least potentially contribute to that transition. But what do we see...

    How do we live "in" the world without being "of" the world

    Ive been struggling a lot with this lately. I live quite far from the closest parish and so its hard to have community their (though I'm slowly making a few friends). My friends in town live a very different life than me, have very different views. Some are protestant Christians, some are...

    Guarding Our Hearts

    Proverbs 23:1-3, 6-9 ESV When you sit down to eat with a ruler, observe carefully what is before you, and put a knife to your throat if you are given to appetite. Do not desire his delicacies, for they are deceptive food… Do not eat the bread of a man who is stingy; do not...

    In This Way

    Philippians 3:17-21; 4:1 NASB Brethren, join in following my example, and observe those who walk according to the pattern you have in us. For many walk, of whom I often told you, and now tell you even weeping, that they are enemies of the cross of Christ, whose end is destruction, whose god is...
