Real Ideas

I don't believe in philosophy.

I believe in ideas that change people.

Beyond Understanding

God knows all before it occurs. More than that: It is His knowledge that brings all events into being.

But we still have free choice.

You claim this is illogical. I ask you: Knowledge of existence before any thought of any thing exists is logical?

When we talk about the Source of All Existence, our principles of logic no longer apply. We don't understand a thing, because there is no understanding.

T. Freeman

How Could It Happen

You ask me, "Why did God allow it to happen?"

You recognize that everything in this world has purpose and meaning. Examine any aspect of His vast Creation, from the cosmos to the workings of the atom and you will see there must be a plan.

And so you ask, where does this fit into the plan? 

How could it?

I can only answer, painfully, God alone knows.

But what I cannot know, I need not know.

I need not know in order to fulfill 

that which my Creator has created me to do.

And that is, to change the world 

so this could never happen again.

Objective Faith

If your belief system is based upon what makes sense to you, what you find most gratifying and what best accommodates your own self concept --then you will undoubtedly fear intellectual inquiry. At best, your approach will be subjective and bribed.

However, when your faith is based not upon your subjective self, but because this is the reality of your inner soul, a truth to which it is intrinsically bound --then you are not afraid to inquire. There is no apprehension of being proven wrong, only certitude that you shall understand more.

Therefore, only true faith can be truly objective.
