I heard about this book on the Waking Up app. I use it every single day to meditate and reflect. I tend to get up at 5 am, get a cup of coffee, spend some time stretching (yoga) and then meditate for at least 10 mins before I do anything else. I will be writing … Continue reading Book Review: The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
It's really strange having fallen from faith to now be starting to wonder if faith is the only way to underpin the very thing I used to push faith away with in the first place (rationality). I have noticed a fair few people lashing out at me about this recently. It's not that I am … Continue reading In the first place…
Agnostic Atheist. It's a term I have used a lot on the podcast and one that I explain in this way. Agnostic is due to knowledge; I don't know if God is real or not. Atheist is because I am not convinced that there is a God, not because I know there isn't a God. … Continue reading So what now?
You will, I hope, have read in my last book review how much of a challenge I found Miracles by C.S. Lewis. I don't want to shy away from this challenge, rather I want to begin to push further into it and really allow myself to begin to explore the various elements it will raise … Continue reading Book Review: Richard Dawkins, C.S. Lewis and the Meaning of Life
When I look at what someone says, whether it is for or against a religious stance in regard to God, do I address it as I would hope someone would address what I say? I seem to have a few 'favourites’ in the anti-Christian world. Authors, YouTubers, podcasters, bloggers etc. Is it because I am … Continue reading Adjusting
I've been working through the book ‘Miracles’ by C.S. Lewis recently, if everything has gone to plan then you should have seen the book review, I posted last week on this blog. Something that has really taken me aback whilst reading this book, and thinking things through, is my desire to make sure I hold … Continue reading My Agenda
I don't know how to say this. I think this book might have changed everything. I am still reeling from it, so maybe after a cup of tea and a good walk, I will be able to brush it off and move on, but something is itching in I am not saying I am a … Continue reading Book Review: Miracles
I have been in dialogue with a lot of believers recently. Talking about faith, what holds them to their beliefs and what pulled me from mine. It's been a really interesting experience, trying to work out why I no longer believe in God, even though if I am honest - I really want to. A … Continue reading A hope in justice
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-yHGcAqcLY This video is a 'Thank You' for everyone who has supported me in getting a new computer. From those who gave financially, to those who sent me kind words, your support and love has been incredible. I've seen atheists, agnostics and Christians alike support me, and that's an amazing position to be in. Just … Continue reading Thank You! (Podcast & Video Editing Equipment)
I write this mid-June 2020 and there has been a lot going on in the world recently. Rarely have I found myself on social media so much, stunned at what I am witnessing unfold within the world. Race. Feminism. Trans. Rights. Privilege. Politics. These subjects have been capturing the minds and hearts of many across … Continue reading Conversations…
