Those who truly know me, also know that one of my greatest weaknesses (as well as it being a strength), is my obsession with analytical thought. I always ponder and scrutinise... to my own cost.<BR/><BR/>I do find it more than a little offensive when people assume I'm just spoon fed.Nick Paynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05330676077919368541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20341825.post-1925020479782872172008-11-26T16:04:00.000+00:002008-11-26T16:04:00.000+00:00The Bible truly has some eloquent writing in it.Th...The Bible truly has some eloquent writing in it.<BR/><BR/>This blog post asks a question to the reader and then uses the Bible to answer it, and very convincingly.<BR/><BR/>Yet, can all answers to our questions be found in the Bible?<BR/><BR/>Maybe.<BR/><BR/>Can it be proven that the Bible was truly god-inspired?<BR/><BR/>No.<BR/><BR/>I respect your beliefs, but at the same time. Can a religion's holy book (The Bible) be used to justify a religion's own teachings?<BR/><BR/>This seems like a form of circular reasoning.<BR/><BR/>Yet, I suppose if you firmly believe in this one religion out of the thousands, then using the Bible as your guide makes sense if you wish to immerse yourself in the religion, rather than ask any probing questions about the religion itself.<BR/><BR/>If you want, check out our blog, we have several posts regarding religion that might shock you or interest you.<BR/><BR/>Dave<BR/><BR/>http://www.youreadygrandma.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20341825.post-35965496629616752062008-11-19T04:08:00.000+00:002008-11-19T04:08:00.000+00:00Nick, your thoughtful writing is very timely for m...Nick, your thoughtful writing is very timely for me, as well, and hits the mark.
