Doubt & Faith - Evolution, Afterlife & History

[1Cor15.54]

I’m catholic and I don’t have a problem with them, also I have to accept reality for what it is, personally. Also I don’t see how someone seeing their loved ones for a last time contradicts biblical teaching.

I remember a professor who was criticized by colleagues at the university next door for holding that said Pauline Creed was from before 45 A.D.

Today it’s quite common to date that Creed very very early.

I have heard from many other atheists that once you go down the road of asking if you are fooling yourself

I’ve come up against that more than once myself, and I always go back to the evidence for the Resurrection.

@mitchellmckain

I think it is just the inventors of your religion that just don’t want people thinking they have any kind of freedom or thinking apart from what they dictate.

I know many people who say that it is only because God sustains everything every moment that there is any such thing as freedom.

@pacificmaelstrom

Whatever is spoken by God IS reality, that’s how it works. It’s not a dream. A dream implies God is lying somewhere sleeping.

In other words, he’s making an artificial dichotomy.

@Vinnie

I’ve already said methodological naturalism is a useful tool. To be a philosophical naturalist is to be an atheist so no, you can’t be a Christian and an atheist at the same time.

Vinnie and @Terry_Sampson thank you so much for clarifying on this. I am sorry I was speaking from my ignorance! I appreciate your humor and patience. I need to read more

Meaningless rhetoric to get people wholly dependent on those running their religion scams.

@mitchellmckain

Eventually, the Theists who interact with Atheists on BioLogos boards will
become disciplined enough not to take the bait about trying to convince
Atheists that Theists are justified in their faith.

Christian Evolutionists don’t owe Atheist evolutionists any explanation.
