What I Believe (day 4)

I believe that an understanding of time is an important part of an understanding of life.

For instance, I think that time is either not linear or that God is bound by it. I've had two great conversations on the matter in the past week. Both were talking about it from an unbiased perspective (by that, I mean that they were not defending God's position in it all, but simply discussing their views on the matter of time). One friend was saying how he believes that time is cyclical and the other was saying how he believes that time is consistent and linear. Both had great points. I blogged about this a bit a while back myself. From my worldview and theological perspective, its impossible for time to be linear and God to be outside of it. Time may very well be linear; and if that's the case, then God is bound by it just like the rest of the universe.

Its complicated, I know.

Went camping this weekend. Didn't use a computer. I'll pick it back up tomorrow with the "I believe..." statements.

What I Believe (day 3)

I believe that most of us don't have a clue who Jesus really was.

Pray for my wife--she has to live with me.

So I always surprise poor Brittany whenever I come up with my next hair-brained scheme. This week, its the desire to own a classic VW Beetle. We've been a "1 Car Couple" for a while now, and I love driving the scooter, but occassionally, it'd be nice to have a car. I just see an old Beetle as a logical solution to said problem. I'm going to post pictures on here, not for your viewing pleasure, but as a way to host them when I post to forums. I'm not a VW expert, but there are plenty out there. So I'm searching for a car and posting pictures for the experts to give me their opinions (and sending Tim pictures and asking him lots of questions).

I love my wife. She has to put up with me.

What I Believe (day 2)

I believe that all humans have libertarian free will and that understanding this is essential to a fulfilling existence.

What I Believe (day 1)

I believe in God.

(That statement needs a lot more explanation. And I'm not willing to give it. I'll simply say that I believe in the existence of a God who, in some way, is responsible for the actuality of the universe and the contents thereof.)

What I Believe (or, A Preface)

I haven't felt like blogging much lately. So I decided I would try something: every day for the month of September, I'm going to make a short post about what I believe. I don't know exactly what that means, but essentially...

-I'll post daily for a month
-I'll try to keep each post as short as possible (a sentence or two)
-Each post will start with "I believe..."

That's all I got. Tomorrow is Day 1. Thanks for reading along...
