ladysisyphus writes about why she is a Christian even though she cannot say unequivocally that Jesus Christ is her Lord and Saviour, which, as we all know, is the litmus of such things. People who thought that the Jerry Springer entry was intended to imply that I believed all American Christians were nutters, take note: there is at least one who is not. andrewducker says what I'd have said about truth and facts, in a conversation which reminds me of those I've had with cathedral_life.

People who read Hebrew might want to have a look at the huge thread on Creationism that developed under my post here, since some of it relies on what I suspect are standard Creationist assertions about the Hebrew used in Genesis. Or you might not: after I while, I learned to avoid the Creationism threads on uk.r.c, only popping out occasionally to ambush people with physics.

There are more photos of the musicals party, to add to bluap's. My camera's rubbish in low light, alas.

Random Flash linkage: To Kill A Mockingbird, Numa Numa. Been doing the rounds, but I mention it in case you've not seen it.

Update: I got a comment from someone recommending the CICCU mission talks this year (which have now been and gone). This has started a debate on whether God is just. Read all about it in the comments inside.

I'd really like to get back into that discussion - unfrotunately it's the end of Christianity Explored next week so my attentions are elsewhere.

I'd be happy to continue it. Although maybe this is not the best place as I'm not sure pw201 (can someone tell me how to do the whole hyperlink with a person icon thing?) would want us filling up his journal. Of course, then again, he might...

I would appreciate continuing it in maybe a few weeks. The Christianity explored course has just finished and so I'm partly just enjoying having free time to myself, and when I'm not doing that I'm colecting my thoughts and getting ready to write up my conclusions.

It would probably be better if I wrote up my argument in its entireity all at once rather than the piecemeal tit for tat way these things occur in comments.

Ah, thanks robhu. (I now expect that I, nlj21, will massively overuse it for awhile; until the novelty wears off!)

Can't say I mind you having the discussion on my journal all that much. OTOH if you want to start a new thread on one of yours, I won't be offended either.
