Out of the blue...
'Don't have your gallbladder removed, I now have chronic diarrhea and there is an increase in bile'.

'Thanks, I did not know that Ken.'

'The cause of diarrhea after gallbladder removal isn't clear. Some experts believe that it results from an increase in bile, especially bile acids, entering the large intestine — which may act as a laxative.'

'The gallbladder is a small organ located on the underside of the liver. Its primary purpose is bile storage. The liver makes bile, a substance that helps the body break down fats. The gallbladder then stores the extra bile the liver makes, releasing it when you eat a meal with fats that need to be digested. Normal digestion is possible without a gallbladder. Bile will continue to reach your small intestine, but it just won’t be stored along the way in the gallbladder.'

Theology
A Christian worldview is primarily based on divine revelatory Scripture. Speculative human reason, emotions and tradition are secondary. Doctrines and theology should therefore be primarily based in reasonable, objective attempts at interpreting the revealed Scripture.
Further:
All true is God's truth, but Scripture within a Reformed model, is the final authority and guide in religious matters. Therefore I am a biblical Christian, but still seek truth from philosophy of religion, science, etcetera.
