Brief Round Table in February

Ontario Travel: Facebook:

'It's like you come out of the sky'. Top floor employee to me Thursday on my patrolling technique. Her male colleague agreed...

Herman Neutic: Looking at my stacks of academic journals states 'There are a lot of great minds that bridge that gap between faith and reason within Christianity, seemingly more than a comparison with any other world religion'.

Satire And Theology: All world views are problematic from a human perspective as we are finite, but Christianity is the least problematic worldview. I state this after in particular, studying the nature of God, problem of evil, theodicy, free will and determinism formally in academia and also in blogging.

If I was to abandon Christianity because Jesus Christ, the Father and Holy Spirit are deemed as overly intellectually and practically problematic in the modern era, I would still need to solve reasonably the same problems of origin, creation, and evil issues with another worldview.

As Christianity has historical religious documentation as Scripture with the New Testament moving forward with the Church Fathers and theological and Biblical writings, there is reliable scholarship. Also relying on the Hebrew Bible and previous historical revelation and Scripture and related.

This is not fideism, but reasonable faith, philosophy and theology.

Chucky: Difficulties should not lead to a complete rejection.

Satire And Theology: The next worldview will be more problematic, in my opinion.

Chucky: Fifty Shades of Nay...

Satire And Theology: I know nothing about it, other than I viewed the previews on television. According to a few Christian teachers I have read and listened to, such as Albert Mohler, it is ponographic...

Red Bartater: 'It seems that in today's world Marvel and DC superheroes, Disney and Star Wars characters are becoming the new folklore for Generations X and Y.'

Satire And Theology:  I noticed last Sunday the Disney Sunday movie featured Iron Man and the Incredible Hulk, and I thought, well at least that was sort of cool, Disney now owning Marvel.

You mentioned, Red B, and you are not even a Rush fan really...

Chucky:  Perhaps the next step will be for Disney to re-tell the classic fairy tales using Marvel and Star Wars characters...although I don't know how that would work in practice...

Satire And Theology:  The Incredible Hulk could replace the Jolly Green Giant in those pea commercials.

Chucky:  Ho Ho Ho!  If Disney owned Green Giant as well...  (currently owned by General Mills)

Satire And Theology  How about corporations allowing the use of their mascots in cross-over superhero movies?  Ronald McDonald and the Burger King could be villains like the Joker and the Green Goblin.

Chucky:  And Green Giant could fight the Hulk.

Satire And Theology: Wagner or Vivaldi, Chucky? (I purchased a CD from each recently). Chucky: Based on what I have heard so far, not being familiar with Wagner, Vivaldi.

Satire And Theology: I would agree, but also would state, I am newer listening to Wagner with only one CD. I realize Wagner is later in the Romantic period, Vivaldi, Baroque.
