“Once upon a time, growing up male gave little boys a sense of certainty about the natural order of things. We had short hair, wore pants, and played baseball.

“For much of history it was possible to believe that the great diversity of life on Earth was a fixed creation, that the living world had never changed.

“Harmonizing religion and science makes you seem like an open-minded and reasonable person, while asserting their incompatibility makes enemies and brands you as “militant.” The reason is clear: religion occupies a privileged place in our society. Attacking it is off-limits, although going after other supernatural or paranormal beliefs like ESP, homeopathy, or political worldviews is not. Accommodationism is not meant to defend science, which can stand on its own, but to show that in some way religion can still make credible claims about the world.” WorldWayPersonsStillsReasonShowsSeemsPoliticalBeliefEnemyClearLimitsClaimsBrandsParanormalReasonableOur SocietyPrivilegedScience And ReligionAttackingWorldviewOpen MindedCredibleMilitantHomeopathyIncompatibilityEsp Author:Jerry A.

“The way in which I know Christianity is true is first and foremost is the basis of the witness of the Holy Spirit in my heart. And this gives me self-authenticating means of knowing Christianity is true wholly apart from the evidence.
