Metaphysics is the philosophical branch that deals with the question of reality. Simply, what is real? Theists believe in “Immaterialism” or “Idealism” which is defined by reality consisting of both the material world (i.e., the physical world of the five senses), and immaterial world which we would call “Spiritual.” Christians and Theists hold this as […]

Suffering As A Living Parable Theodicy is the defense of God against the Problem of Evil or Suffering. This is, in my studied opinion, the only argument against God and his goodness, power, or even existence. Contrasting that one argument against faith, is that there are many arguments in favor God’s existence. Alex O’Connor, who […]

Star Trek is one of my favorite science fiction franchises. Despite my fandom, it displays an illogical reality, to reference Spock.

How To Deal with Atheism in Our Young People? While this idea began dealing with how to help “our” children, the idea expanded, not beyond our children, but to any who become atheists.

There are two kinds of atheists: 1) Those who believe there is nothing but matter and therefore no free will; 2) Those who believe there is free will.

When deciding to believe, how are we convicted? By biblical definition, to believe means “to be persuaded”. By what are we persuaded?
