• Christianity’s Future?

  
  — Authority:
  On a recent Sunday morning I sat in church barely awake. It was my fault. I’d been up late having an endless discussion with a friend, a discussion that I won’t go into.

• The New Atheism is Old Hat

  
  Maverick Philosopher — Authority: 598

In the end you must decide for ...

• 10 Questions to Ask Before You Believe Something

  
  — Authority:
  How well does a belief that you currently subscribe to hold up under these ten questions? And wouldn’t it be nice if we all asked such questions before  professing belief in something?

• Analogical Language, Doctrine of God, and the World

  
  — Authority:
  In God’s world, everything is, after all, comparable to everything else.
