Liberty and Freedom Without Christianity
A lot is being said about liberty these days, especially in terms of things like the TSA, Obamacare, and the Tea Party. Many that argue for less government make the case that government control spoils things. It does not bring the prosperity that it promises. It provides no incentive to work. It leads to moral [...]
Slinky Clothing Provokes Rape?
Jeans Photo by Rolfpicture Running a website on modesty, I have heard all sorts of reasons of why a woman should wear modest clothing. Most of the reasons center around what different clothing does to guys that look at it, and a desire not to cause men to lust after a woman. The problem with [...]
Get to the Point
Sorry. The point is this: We have a new tyranny at hand, and it’s not coming from Christians. In fact, what Christians have tried to do pales in comparison to what is currently going on based on this new moral law of discrimination. It is now wrong to conduct business and not serve certain people [...]
Defining a New Morality
The second thing I found fascinating was the whole idea that discrimination is the new sin. In my discussion which is still continuing on Christian morality and Atheistic morality one of the things that I haven’t managed to get to is the discussion of basis for morality– what makes a given thing right or wrong. [...]
Where is Elijah?
For some weird reason I’m in a reflective type mood as of late. I think a lot of it has to do with the workbook I’m working through called Experiencing God. (You can find the link to it in my sidebar.) At its core is the premise that God is still at work in the [...]
Loose Morality
There’s this weird convergence on this topic on this blog such that it makes sense to clarify what I’m trying to say here because it’s foundational to what I’m saying elsewhere. So, what do I mean when I say that Atheism has no basis for a moral code? Let’s start with what I’m not saying [...]
The Christian Worldview
The more I’ve talked online about Creation vs. Evolution or Atheism vs. Christianity the more it confirms to me that these two worldviews are very difficult to reconcile because of their nature. Both believe that they reflect truth, and that the other reflects nonsense. Both strongly hold their opinions, and the longer that they debate [...]
Do the Muslims Have a Point?
Around the time of 9/11 many people started saying that instead of using force we should try to understand why the East does not like the West. One of the things that came back was our immorality. Sending Barbie over to the East with her cutoffs and halter tops (as well as our pop princesses) [...]
Why We Do What We Do
For everything we do, we have a reason. Sometimes we do not think through the reason, but there is a reason none the same. So, when it comes to the discussion of morals and why we do what we do, it is important to recognize this fact if we are going to have a good [...]
Morals without Christianity
It was an interesting conversation that I did not start. The other day I was working at my desk when a coworker– a contractor from natively from Canada– probed to see what I believed in and then offered a short dissertation on the impact of Christianity in his hometown. Basically, he recounted that in Quebec [...]
Christian Atheism
One of the things that is truly fascinating about the atheist movement in America in 2008 is not that there are people that actually believe that the Universe was brought about from nothing, but that they attempt to take morality from Christianity and then claim a secular derivation in order to take ownership of said [...]
