    Evolution is Unscientific

    But for every species that require male, female and penetration, how is this possible. Supposing the male bits develop first, but if there is no female with all her bits, there will be no next generation. Virtually everything to do with life, needs several things to happen at once. Evolution...

    Evolution is Unscientific

    Quantity and speed is not the problem. Producing new cells, and new mutations then organizing a trillion cells into all the body parts is the real problem.

    Evolution is Unscientific

    I have a fascination with maths and design. You have not suggested a path, how single cell life from 3.8 billion years ago, could evolve into species with a trillion plus cells. Random mutation does not seem a viable explanation. It would need a million incremental steps, and each step on...

    The Synod in the Catholic Church

    My sincere apologies for the post this morning, I wrote it rather quickly before going out. My mum, in essence, asked us to do for her, what the nurse did for your dad. I can understand how this would help your dad, and how your family would feel more at peace, knowing his suffering would be...

    The Synod in the Catholic Church

    You have posed a real dilemma, but I wonder how God sees this. Millions of children are left to die from abject poverty, starvation and preventable disease. Are they given the choice of food or a quick and painless death? Moral problems trouble most of us. Here is another story. My mum went...

    Evolution is Unscientific

    Mathematically, how could evolution happen without God? 3.8 billion years ago, single cell life emerged. Organisms then had to increase incrementally in size to thousands, millions, billions and to trillions of cells. Supposing it took a million increases, to go from single cell life to a...

    Would The World Be Better Off Without Religion?

    When people disobey religion, then we have wars. We are commanded to love all our neighbours as we love ourselves. We are commanded to love and pray for our enemies. Leaders have always known how to manipulate the masses. Hermann Goering, Germany Reborn “Why of course the people don't want...

    Would The World Be Better Off Without Religion?

    People blatantly ignore science. There is far more evidence that says smoking is bad for you, yet millions ignore this convincing science. There is far less evidence to show how the universe happened by natural causes. Thanks to science, I stopped smoking forty years ago. I am just waiting for...

    Absolute Truth

    Beliefs on their own can do no harm. It is what we choose to do with our belief that can cause good or evil.

    Would The World Be Better Off Without Religion?

    He called them hypocrites, a brood of vipers, they place a burden on the poor, and do nothing to help them, they seek the place of honour. Jesus taught a profound lesson, to put others first, to help the poor, to forgive and show mercy.

    "a special potency" -- which healing prayer is that?

    God works in mysterious and profound ways. If the words of the prayer were all that is needed, then everyone would be healed if they used this prayer. I sense, we also need to do something, we have to have faith and trust in what we pray for. In 2011 I had tests done for cancer, about a month...

    Injustice, Anger and Forgiveness.

    I knew a man whose teenage child had been killed in an accident. It hit him hard, and he struggled to come to terms with it. Months later, at the inquest, there was evidence to show it was not an accident, there was blame. The man was fined and ordered to do community service. Justice had been...

    Absolute Truth

    I am always troubled by how we see truth, and more importantly how we use truth. It would be far easier if there were a thousand Jesus Christs, we could all go off in our little groups and make up our own rules. My analogy, and it is a bad one. One church will only allow people in with green...

    Would The World Be Better Off Without Religion?

    Science is neutral. Science has helped us develop both medication and nuclear bombs, what science do you want to follow?

    Would The World Be Better Off Without Religion?

    God has given us profound ways to follow him, tomorrow's reading comes from Philippians 2. Brothers and sisters: If there is any encouragement in Christ, any solace in love, any participation in the Spirit, any compassion and mercy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, with the same love...

    Public Evangelization

    Fifteen years volunteering with street pastors, I have benefited from maybe half a dozen BBQs and one Christmas lunch. No one said you could ask for a Porsche, must check through our policies, we could be missing out:D

    Absolute Truth

    Atheists, Catholics, Muslims, Hindu, will never agree on doctrine. It is far easier for all of us to agree on a moral truth of kindness, how should we treat each other? I firmly believe the most important absolute truth that has any meaning, is a moral truth. This moral truth will have more...
