Ode to Dboy

This is the first poem I ever received from a friend of mine, Matt Baker. He wrote it about 3 years ago, and I still have the origianl paper it was written on. It's awesome:

Give me the show
So I might give
It a go
Don't get low
Just mow.

Gummy


In Year 10 we used to have 'warm and fuzzies', where we had a pocket each with our names on them, and then during the week you could write something nice about someone and then stick it in their pocket for them to read. This is one I received from Peebody (we've known each other since Grade 1):

Eey can spel th wordds thaT ar good.

It still gives me goosebumps.

Proof for the Existence of God

Peebody has raised a wonderful discussion topic that deserves a post all of its own, as well as raising some interesting questions about divine creation.

As a prelude, I'd love to say that my experience in studying Philosophy at uni has provided me with a wonderful foundation for my belief in God, and Jesus Christ as the Son of God. My underlying attitude is one that says the most logical answer wins - if someone could provide sound evidence that God doesn not exist, then I would concede the point in a moment and my beliefs would change to suit.

What my major in Philosophy did for me, was it taught me that Christianity is actually the most philosophically sound conclusion. I love what I believe because it is the most defendable position that there is: it has provided answers where there are none with anything else, it has survived the philosophical scrutiny of every one of my peers/lecturers/tutors at uni, and it has an answer to every question thrown at it.

Ok, onto the content. People, this is your thread. For those who believe, this is an opportunity to provide evidence for your convictions. For those who are searching, this is an opportunity to ask any question you wish to put out there.

Have a ball!

My Kind of Logic

Love this. It's taken from a book called 'A Ready Defense' by Josh McDowell, and he's quoting a guy called Charles Wesley.

The Bible must be either the invention of good men or angels, bad men or demons, or of God. Therefore:

1. It could not be the invention of good men or angels, for they neither could nor would make a book, and tell lies all the time they were writing it, saying, "Thus saith the Lord" when it was their own invention.

2. It could not be an invention of bad men or devils, for they would not make a book that commands all duty, forbids all sin, and condemns their souls to hell to all eternity.

3. Therefore, I draw this conclusion, that the Bible must be given by divine inspiration.


Thoughts?
