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
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…
Not a parent? It doesn't matter. This blog post will look at some areas we can all work on, and I think it is essential for everyone, as we will all have been influenced by our parents/careers/friends. It can help us reflect on what is within us from our childhood - because it affects us … Continue reading Book Review: The Conscious Parent
It is very easy, when leaving a religion, to push every aspect of it away and never look at it again. Maybe this is best for some people, but I don't think it's right for everyone, and I would argue it is not right for society (at least within the UK) as a whole. Do … Continue reading The Substrate
Humanity dawned 200,000 years ago at the first (known) homo sapiens existence. 1,800,000 years before that homo Erectus was here on the earth. Homo erectus were not mindless apes wandering the savanna. They knew how to use fire in a controlled manner to clear areas. They could defiantly communicate, they could laugh, play, fight, kill, … Continue reading Staggering Time
