On Finding God

I’ve noticed a trend on Twitter and I’m not sure if it’s representative of the world at large, or a phenomenon of the social media. The vast majority of the atheists I’ve had the pleasure of interacting with on Twitter have attempted to disabuse me of my faith through mockery and personal insults, rather than reason and logic.

The Burning Building

A buddy of mine is a firefighter and an EMT and he has some amazing stories to tell. He just got back from helping to fight the wildfires in east Tennessee and it occurred to me how counter-intuitive it is for a person to willingly walk into a burning forest. Typically at the signs and […]

The Order of Importance

I had a very interesting question put to me by one of my atheist friends on Twitter. It seemed a simple query at first, but turned out to be much trickier than I realized. @roso_creative OK. How would you rank these in order of importance; You believing him to be true Him actually being true […]

On Trusting God (One)

@frank_is_free: I often see believers pointing to faith as the reason why they hold their religious beliefs. Would you say your beliefs are more based on evidence than in general? @roso_creative (me): As compared to the average believer I know, I’d say I’m unusual in the degree to which evidence plays a role in my […]
