This blog is embryonic, and time is scarce, but I shall add things here occasionally.

One thing I have added is a passage from Jordan Howard Sobel’s Logic and Theism that resonated with me.  I’ll comment on it in a series of posts.  The thing that struck me immediately was on reading the words:

An ‘objective humanist’ might say that there can be nothing to which it would not be beneath the proper dignity of a human being to bend and to worship. He might say that, far from ever being appropriate, worship done by a human being regardless of the object, would be disrespectful of his humanity and wrong.

And I thought back to being a teenager, growing up surrounded by a lot of eager Christians, and thinking something lie:

If accepting Jesus as my personal savior is the price of admission to heaven, then hell doesn’t look like such a bad deal.

Seriously.
