• What Must One Believe in Order to be Saved?

  
  The Arminian — Authority: 114
  The title of the post presumes that certain beliefs are directly connected with eternal salvation. In our (inclusivistic, egalitarian, relativistic, pluralistic, socio-politico-religio-savvy) Western culture, I have already presumed too much in the opinion of some people. For example, when a Christian can claim that ...

  The Arminian — Authority: 114

• Are all religions essentially the same?

  
  Church of the Churchless — Authority: 106

• The Countdown to Lent

  
  Mallorca Daily Photo Blog — Authority: 110
  The Mallorcan folks are really quite clever people. They certainly were some time ago, let’s say, a hundred years ago. Then, school education was a matter of the upper class and land owners only.

  My monthly column is up now at BreakPoint: Syncretism (noun): “the amalgamation or attempted amalgamation of different religions, cultures, or schools of thought.” I first heard of syncretism in a seminary course on missions that I took many years ago.

• In God we Trust: Why?

  
  The Doctor Weighs In — Authority: 415
  By Dov Michaeli Why do people believe in flying saucers? Or conspiracy theories? Or in gods?
