BLM, I Just Got “Woke” it’s No Joke

Perhaps you think I misspelt “Woke”? Nah, that’s not the case. You see, being born a white male with blue eyes (I’m ashamed to say),I could hurt the feelings of the oppressed.

Can the Miracle of the Resurrection be Proved without the Gospels?

Since the Gospel accounts contain miracles and since we know miracles don’t happen, it follows that the Gospel accounts are at best; unreliable or at worse just plain fairy tales. As Prof Richard Dawkins said “You can’t sneak in a little magic when it suits you”.

It Takes a Leap of Faith to Believe in the Resurrection?

Previously, I averred that God never intended us to live in heaven permanently.

I Definitely, Don’t Want to Go Heaven! (Part 1)

When Jesus of Nazareth stepped out of that tomb with an immortal body, Easter Sunday 2,000 years ago, I can assure you, he didn’t go to all that effort to take me or you to heaven. He had something much bigger in mind, dare I say so stupendous that we can’t begin to understand its enormity.
