Old Testament Attitudes

Our moral values of “An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth”, retribution, and vengeance are prevalent throughout America’s history, films, justice systems, wars, foreign policies, and behavior. It is so ingrained in our culture that we are often blind to its presence within us. We call it by other names such as justice, punishment, retaliation, payback, getting even, settling a score, what they deserve, they started it, etc. Many refuse to hear the other side of the story or what effects we have on other human beings and in a sense dehumanize others as being something other than like ourselves. We are in denial of our inherent animosity towards others treating them somehow separate from ourselves. Continue reading

Christianity of Exclusions

A Rational View of what Heaven & Hell Might Be Like

This is a rational view of what Heaven might be like in the Christian Judaic tradition of God. Heaven is a stepping stone to a perfect union with God. It is where Spirits interact with one another to gain more knowledge about the Truth of God. Continue reading

Autism and the Lack of Spirituality

My personal reasons why autistic individuals do not experience spirituality as an autistic is because they are unable to pick up on subliminal signals (unknown to science at this point) from others. Continue reading

If the Universe is Rational Must the Creator also be Rational?

The fact that science exists is evidence that the universe is rational since science is the rational study of all things in the universe. This being the case can it then be surmised that if the universe was created then the Creator must also be Rational? Continue reading

The Good Samaritan

In the parable of the Good Samaritan Jesus speaks about a good deed being done by a pagan while two God fearing Jews ignored the peril of a beaten and robbed man. Does this parable hint that God would look favorably upon a good pagan and poorly upon uncompassionate God fearing men? Continue reading

Is there a God out there?

I reveal my struggle with a faith based God and my break with my Christian roots. I don’t know if there is a God, the creator of all, but I have curiosity about the possibilities. I feel that if there is a God like some Christians profess, Christians in general are extremely poor representatives of that faith and fail to understand the meaning of grace, compassion, forgiveness, unconditional love, turning the other cheek, and letting God be the judge.
