I'm not sure that you understood my question. I'm not talking about the things that God does that maybe we can't understand because of a lack of perspective or knowledge. I'm asking a PURELY hypothetical question that is philosophical in nature. I'm asking what if God where to do something that...

Many of the arguments concerning public education have to do with religious issues. The following is the single best argument I have ever heard on the topic and it is offered by an atheist and it is anything but religiously based. I invite those of you who support the public education system...

Of course anyone can offer an answer but I want to hear from the Calvinists in particular on the following question.... If someone sets your house on fire in the middle of the night and then, once the house is fully engulfed in flames, rushes in to rescue you and your 2nd child but decides to...

Our Moral God The question of God's morality might, to some, seem a ridiculous question. To some the idea that God might not be moral is so ludicrous a thought that it would be down right blasphemous to even utter it aloud. After all, they say, if God is amoral (i.e. non-moral) then there can...
